Hi, well I have read a lot of reviews of people that are on Prolia and the reviews are more negative than positive. A lot of pain in the joints etc dentists are against the prolia too.

Yes there is but over 26 million people have been or are on Prolia. Thats a lot! You Will obviously read bad reviews…everything has to be taken in to consideration and trying to use your best judgement is very difficult for sure.
I am trying to avoid Prolia as well but it’s because I’m too young…its a last resort.

@norahguil Unfortunately, all of these medications have side effects. I have been on four of them to date and all had side effects that ranged from none to mild to severe. They are powerful medications that work on our bone metabolism and everyone seems to be different in how they react to them.

You could try Forteo or Evenity and see how she does. The commitment would only be for a short term to see if the side effects are intolerable. With Forteo, the side effects are reversed within a matter of days and for Evenity, a one or two month trial would reveal whether she can tolerate it.

Good luck with a difficult decision, especially at your mum's age. Wishing you the best possible outcome for your mum.
