I started Tymlos four months ago. Having lots of itching, especially during the night. In addition I have had significant abdominal bloating. Has anyone else experienced these side effects?

Greetings @lynncee and welcome to. Connect. Osteoporosis is a very busy area with lots of different posts, postures, and experiences. To start, I want to let you know that I completed two years on Tymlos with no side effects. My osteoporosis returned to being osteopenia in some areas and held its own in other areas.

One of the advantages of Tymlos is that you don't have to refrigerate it and you can titrate up by using the clicker on the pen.

Here is how you can find posts about Tymlos or osteoporosis issues. In the search bar at the top of this page.......enter "Tymlos" with the quotes. You will be taken to a quite long list of experiences and comments from other members.

Let me know if you run into a hurdle and need help. I also would like to address your itching. I have a neuropathic itch that just attacks me. It is a frequent battle with ER visits and panic attacks. My dermatologist brought back a new product from an international dermatology conference. It is called Dermeleve. You can find out more about it at http://www.dermeleve.com. It does not contain any steroids and works quite well. You will feel it take effect within minutes and then have itch relief for about 6 hours. Not an eliminator but it may make your nights better for sleeping. And at this point you do not need an Rx.....just order it on the website.

What are you currently using for your "itch".

May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
