Evenity Side Effects

Posted by cincy @cincy, Dec 27, 2023

Has anyone had severe back pain and burning sensation on Evenity after just starting ?And how long does it last or is it a sign to try another medication?It starts about 7 days after the injection and pain is severe you can’t do a thing.Thanks.

I lasted 8 months with Evenity, but stopped due to side effects: rash, cough, brain fog...

I have learned a lot from the various postings regarding side effects from Evenity. I had my first injection 8 days ago and have noticed brain fog, fatigue, burning and itching sensation in my legs below the knees, and a few other symptoms. My endocrinologist suggested the burning sensation may be parethesia and advised taking an extra dose of calcium when it occurs. At this point I am taking a wait and see approach, but I do think doctors should explain various possible side effects in more detail before prescribing this and other treatments. I resisted taking medication for osteoporosis for many years precisely because I feared having side effects, but after a compression fracture in my vertebrae two years ago decided I should start treatment. From the various postings I have read here I am once again having strong doubts..
