Evenity Can I get more side effects as I continue my treatment?
I just had my first two shots of Evenity last month (one in each arm) it went well no pain whatsoever. My question is, as I continue treatment, could I experience more side effects? Is it a cumulative effect? As I continue treatment would side effects happen as I get more shots and Evenity builds up in my body? Or, am I going to be okay and since I did well with my two shots? Just wanting feedback that everything should be A Okay? I am on this for one full year and want to stay as positive as possible. Thank you. Any comments or feedback would be great to hear.

For me, side effects improved. For my friend who had no side effects for months, she experienced some fatigue toward the end of the year but had dramatic gains. Many on this forum have posted with no side effects at all. So noone can predict but it sure is a good sign that you have done so well so far.
My friend and I noticed (mild) side effects around day 7 when the concentration might peak (online the drug insert says peak between days 2-7 and on average day 5). You can ask the doctor or pharmacist but I don't think the drug lingers in the body (half life is 12.8 days, according to the drug insert, so half the drug is gone then) but my doctor said it takes a month or two for Evenity to fully "mineralize" with each shot. Not sure what that means!
Fingers crossed, good chance you will be good!
What are the side effects of evenity?
@jjpoodlespress most people do not experience significant (bad) side effects from Evenity and I don't see any trend from following discussion groups that side effects build. For most of us Evenity is great. I completed a year with no side effects worth mentioning and got great results. The odds are that you will too.
