I have 5 fractured vertebrae..all repaired except one..hoping it heals on itself..I need to start osteoporosis meds..any suggestions
Both Forteo and Tymlos speed fracture healing. In my opinion they are the best medications for osteoporosis.
They build integrated, dynamic bone.
I hope your fractures aren't painful.
I don’t think Tymlos or Forteo have this risk of jaw necrosis

1 ReactionI have not heard of either of those options, just the three I have had. Having had my perfect teeth removed after a year and a half battle between my dentist and hematology oncologist, I have now been without the ability to chew or really eat much of anything for roughly nine months. Finally got my dentures a week ago after two grueling dental surgeries. I am glad I did now, having just met someone who had breast cancer that metastasized all over her body and had a cavity filled and no one advised her of the very real concerns regarding necrotic jaw problems. She is now scheduled to have her entire jaw removed. Can't imagine, honestly. I would highly encourage anyone getting bone shots of any kind to check and double check the risks associated with the bone meds. I had Fosamax twenty four years ago for a long time and another similar prescription med but never heard anything about risks similar to what exists now with perhaps stronger and better meds ? Best wishes to everyone dealing with any bone issues. It isn't a lot of fun at any age or any stage of the game.
