Yes you can take either Alendronate or Reclast to " lock in " any gains that you get from Evenity per my Endocrinologist. I did not have any " gains" but I choose Alendronate rather than Reclast because I was worried about the side effects of the huge amount of medication you receive with Reclast. Good luck with your decision.

Thank you!!!

I took 12 months of Evenity. Toward the end of the treatment I developed PVCs (heart palpitations), which stopped about 3-4 weeks after my last treatment. When I started exploring the options for "what's next", I read much about Prolia and recast. Both of those options sounded terrible to me, and I opted not to continue with any medication. When I asked my Dr. about going to alendronate instead of Prolia or Recast, her response was "that is not the protocol". I didn't feel like I had great response from the Evenity in my hips, which is where I really needed it, and decided I would continue surveillance with a DEXA scan each year, and make future decisions based on the results going forward.
