Evenity….stopped after the first set of injections…

I called Amgen and they can only say that the FDA approved dose, based on studies, is approved. They refer me to my doc who refers me to Amgen!
I read that those of us who are small and low weight have greater "exposure" to Evenity (and other meds of course).

I had the same experience. When I would ask my doctor questions she would refer me to Amgen, and then Amgen would refer me back to the doctor. I felt like I knew more about the Evenity than my doctor did. I am 4'10" and weigh 98 lbs. I'm 76 years old. I often wonder why more medications aren't weight based, as I find that
medications generally don't agree with me, and I believe that could be based on my size. I was not familiar with Tymlos. Sounds like it worked very well. My results with Evenity were minimal. For now I am not going to treat with meds, I'll just follow with DEXA scans.
