Anyone taken Evenity (romosozumab) for Osteoporosis?

If Reclast is used as a follow up for other meds, my doc told me that a break from meds might be possible, since it stays in the system so long. My doc will monitor what is happening, not sure how. Also Dr. McCormick suggests CTX and P1NP tests to see what is going on and anticipate the need to do more Reclast, or alendronate.
Obviously no break is possible with Prolia and I would worry about the effects of long term anti-resorption in terms of jaw and femur fractures. Our docs can inform and I also read McCormick's new book Great Bones.

Thank you for the input. When you say a ‘break from meds might be possible’, you mean AFTER 1st Reclast yearly ? Trying to anticipate how soon after last Evenity I need to start new meds. I recall reading something to the effect of ‘one month + or - 7 days.
CTX is what??? I have done 24 hour calcium urine test, and CBC. but want to make sure that my endocrinologist requests all necessary bloodwork PRIOR to start of next drug. Thank you in advance for indulging my follow-up questions.
