Forteo vs teriparatide and Original Medicare Drug Plan (Part D)

The ingredient list on Bonsity and Forteo are the same.
The additives to teriparatide (the 1-34 sequence of the pth hormone) may be in slightly different amounts.
The main difference is in the medium used for obtaining PTH 1-34. Bonsity teriparatide uses a strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens modified by recombinant DNA technology.
Forteo teriparatide is manufactured using a strain of Escherichia coli modified by recombinant DNA technology.
The FDA considers them bioidentical.
