So far, my understanding about this drug, aside from its side effects, is a certain course of shots for this drug. Then another to replace it?

@merpreb Yes, that's my endocrinologist told me. I'll get 12 months of injections of Evenity to "build" bone density and then a bone density scan to examine what we hope are gains in bone density. At that point my doctor will order another medication such as Reclast to "lock in" the gains. I get Evenity injections at an infusion center that is 2 hour drive from where I live. So, once a month we make a day of it and stop for a late lunch on the way back home.
