giving 2 injections of tymlos
I was wondering .... I'm on 70 of tymlos , ready to try 80 mcg again, but hesitant because of the effect on my heart. What if I give myself the extra 10 mcg several hours later, the total dose for the day would be 80...

I asked my doctor about this. He said I could do part of the dose 15 minutes later, as I remember. I remember a poster who split it over the day and I was surprised. Ask your doctor or the Radius pharmacist.
I had substantial gains on 70mcg. Do you really need the full 80? I did the full 80mcg maybe three times. I have no idea why a difference of just 10mcg was so severe!
The extra 10mcg later in the day would not do any harm I would think (again check with doctor) but it also might not do much š
thank you...
you absolutely need to discuss this with your doctor not us.
Yes-please consult with your doctor but also know people come on this blog to learn of other peopleās experiences on the off chance they have had similar experiences. It has been very helpful for me to compare and make my own choices. Had I simply followed my doctors āill informedā option I would have been on Prolia as 1st med and Thank God I did my own research and did not follow that advice!! I am taking an anabolic as 1st line of defense and wt. lifting with yoga and HRT.
I thought it was fairly important to try to take one's shot at about the same time each day and that the shot was designed to give a specific, brief "pulse" of PTH (or synthetic PTH) just once a day. Whatever I was reading the day I stored that morsel of info indicated that having multiple pulses of PTH (or too much PTH in one's single daily pulse) caused bone resorption to exceed growth. I made a mental note not to split up my medicine to different times a day after I read that (but [of course] I am not a medical professional and this was just my own interpretation of something I read :-)).
