Depending on your constitution, I recommed tryign the gentlest antiresportive first.. have you BTM checked to see how it is working. If working well, youdo not need to strongest antirepostive.
I took Actonel becsue it stays in the body just 2 motnths and if there is a problem, you can get off it.
In just 6 weeks and it plummeted my BTM to extremely low ( P1NP 18 and CTX 81). I may have needed only 1/2 or 1/3 dose.
Imagine what coudl have happened with reclast - which is long lasting.
We are all different - but I err on side of gentle first - if it works great! If not you can move to stronger medication.
Sending healing light

Thanks for this info about Actonel- I think I remember someone commenting on this drug before. I am most of the way through my second year of Tymlos and will have to make a choice what's next this summer. I am only 65 and wish I didn't have to do anything because I dread side effects. But my last Dexa showed my bone density is not good so I know I have to do something. Questions: How long were you on Actonel? Did you have any undesirable side effects ? PS- one of my doctors is pushing prolia for me next. I am getting a second opinion

@dmshope hi, sorry to ask, but what is BTM? I'm pretty new to all of this.
