Has anyone experienced back pain with Tymlos?

Yes, I have a lot of side effects with the Tymlos, but back pain was a major one. It would start 10 minutes after the injection, like a spasm. It wasn't very pleasant, but it has subsided to a degree. My doctor recommended taking extra magnesium and to be sure that I was well hydrated. Maybe that helped or maybe I’m just getting used to the medication.

@maymore you said your back pain has subsided. How long did that take? I also had back pain, about 10 minutes after injection. It was my first injection. I am going to try a smaller dose tonight

@maymore hello. I just started taking Tymlos 5 days ago. On the very first day that I took it, I had that exact same spasm in my lower back. I do have degenerative disc disease of the lumbar/sacral area (wear and tear of the spine from aging). I am 61. But that pain was real. It subsided in 30 mins or so. And also got better in the next few times. I told my Endocrinologist about it and his response was that he had never heard of this reaction from his other patients. Glad to know I was not just imagining it.
I plan on continuing with the med.
