Anyone taken Evenity (romosozumab) for Osteoporosis?

I just found this forum and have a question. One of the posts mentioned that Evenity has sulfa in it. I am very allergic to sulfa and my doctor knows that but has recommended Evenity for my osteoporosis. I haven’t decided to take it yet but now I’m concerned. Does anyone know anything about this? There is no mention of this on the Evenity website.

Good evening @carols42 and welcome to Connect. I see this is your first post and it is a good one. Welcome. Is your doctor also your primary care provider? I, too, am very allergic to sulfa. The last doctor who didn't understand the impact that sulfa has on me also ignored the chart and I ended up in the ER trying to recover from the itching. I was rolling on the carpet trying to control what was happening to my body.

I think you can actually call Amgen and talk to a medical professional about your situation. The number is 800 772-6436. They might have a recommendation that you can give your doctor. Please report back. I too would like to know what they tell you.

May you be content and at ease.
Chris
