My Experience on Evenity for Treating Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis & Bone Health | Last Active: 1 day ago | Replies (1085)Comment receiving replies
After takining 2 evenity infusions, at my doctor’s suggestions for osteoporosis, I began to have acute joint pain and stiffness in my fingers, next my elbow and knees. When I voiced these side effects to my doctor I was immediately taken off the infusions. After 2 months of every test imaginable my doctors could find no other cause for my pain. Now my fingers are almost completely useless, fatigue and stiffness has taken over my entire body. My doctor seems to believe that there is a connection to the infusions. Reading the side effects mention 18 percent of users as having joint and bone pain. I am curious if this happened to any other user of Evenity. Is there anything that will reverse this side effect, or am I doomed to live like this? I am 71, active and in good health.

Hi Vicky.
I’m sorry about your joint pain. I was wondering if it’s any better? After my third injection of Evenity, I started having those side effects. November 3, 2023 was my last injection and I’m still having the side effects. I have pretty much constant pain in my shins and calves (tibia) and it is tolerable when I’m not on my feet much. It gets worse with exercise, too much standing or walking. I also feel tingling, pins and needle sensation. When it’s really bad after too much activity, I feel it in my knees and as far down as in the top of my feet sometimes. After an active day, the pain is worse at night when I’m sitting with my feet up reclining, more than when I’m on my feet. if anyone can let me know how long these side effects lasted for them, I would appreciate it. Thank you!
