Anyone taken Evenity (romosozumab) for Osteoporosis?

Posted by arlene7 @arlene7, May 27, 2020

Has anyone taken Evenity? I understand it’s only been on the market for a little over a year. I’m hoping it will help with my severe osteoporosis. Any information is helpful.

@sue225
My endocrinologist switched me to Prolia after the bad reaction to Forteo.
Two years of Prolia and I had a pathologic hip fracture. So now I sport a rod in my femur with three nifty nine inch nails. Trying Evenity now.

@fossil omg, that is awful! You have not been lucky. These drugs for osteoporosis have always scared me. There are two side effects that I have experienced on Prolia: my cholesterol which was being sort of managed with repatha injections shot way up and hair loss. Compared to you, maybe I am getting off easy,-unless I have a stroke/h.a. from a blocked artery.
I always wonder if I had a fall would the Prolia really prevent a fracture?
May you have no more trouble with these medications.

I don’t have heart issues. But it can cause them. Trina
