I started Prolia in October of 2022. No side effects after 3 injections. However, in April I had a molar that cracked , I did find an outstanding oral surgeon that was willing to pull the tooth. Then out of precaution I was put on high doses of Amoxicillin and NSAID. Developed NSAID toxicity and CDEf. Then put on Flagyl. One mouth of pure misery. Moral of this story, there is no guarantee that while on Prolia events ,not in your control, will arise. I would like to get off Prolia, however, my mother at 97 years old died after her spine gave out due to osteoporosis. For years she would not go on a drug,however, watching an amazing woman that was still playing classical music at 96 with no other health issue but osteoporosis was sad and hard to comprehend why she never sought some type of treatment. She lived the last 8 years of her life with her head bent to her belly button. She had multiple surgeries for painful fractures. We must all be proactive with our lives. Ask your doctor to compare your dexa scan from year to year. Ask for a CT bone scan. The more information we have the more we can make the best personal decision. My best to all.

I had a molar extracted in month six of Prolia injection in Jan 2022 and waited until month 7 to get next injection. No antibiotic prescribed. No infecttion. The tooth healed.
