I want to do Evenity after Tymlos

Posted by windyshores @windyshores, May 1, 2023

I want to at least discuss Evenity after I finish Tymlos, versus Reclast. While I am pleased with my results from Tymlos, I still feel vulnerable to more fractures since I already have 7 in my spine. I would like to continue to build bone.

I cannot tolerate Forteo which can be taken for more than two years, and I believe Tymlos still has that two year limit.

My kidney function is not great so Reclast concerns me. I have COPD and read that bone builder is better than anti-resorptive past two years of use, to preserve lung capacity, which is impacted by fractures.

Some of the posters on Connect have done Evenity after Forteo or Tymlos. Did your doctor need convincing? My doc says there is "no data" on it. If anyone has a doc in MA who is prescribing this, please PM me. I may not be able to get in in time but worth a try for a second opinion.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Bones, Joints & Muscles Support Group.

I am not in MA, but both of my doctors insisted on Evenity after Tymlos. I start Evenity this month when I finish the Tymlos. I will post about that when I get the first injection. This site has been reassuring about that.

It seems many are doing this sequence. I am surprised at my doc who is usually so flexible.
