Need your feedback re: possible pre - Tymlos routine ???

Posted by susanjohnston @susanjohnston, Mar 9, 2025

I will be starting Tymlos in a few weeks. Based on this community's discussions of possible side effects, I have designed a plan to follow prior to each evening injection. I will ingest the following: an anti- nausea dissolvable tab, an electrolyte chew, and soda crackers. I will then inject the Tymlos starting at Level #1 and increasing the dose every two weeks. I would be very grateful for any additional suggestions or revisions you may have. And when is a logical time to test for Hypercalcemia and Vitamin D after starting Tymlos?

@njx58 Just starting this next week. I will start low, probably 2-3. Is it easy to tell how many clicks? Is there a sound?

@ccps101 Yes, each click is very obvious. You can also go back to zero in case you lose track and want to start over.

I am new to Tymlos too and thought I would share my experience taking it for the first month. I started with four clicks for two week, then went to five for a week and then six. I haven't gone for the full eight just because I was traveling and didn't wan't to chance it. Will be starting eight clicks this week.

I take it a night around 9:30 or 10. No side effects except maybe a little racing heart beat. No prepping. It's really been pretty easy. Best of luck to you!
