Risedronate Sodium 150mg

Hello, has anyone tried Risedronate Sodium 150mg once a month for Osteoporosis?
I've been on it a couple months. So far no side effects, but hoping this helps improve my bones.

Seems all meds went up this year?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Osteoporosis & Bone Health Support Group.

Yes I stopped Evenity after 10 months because of the cost and the outcome on my dexa test.

My scores last year were 33% T-score, left radius were 4.3 which puts me at a range of Frank Osteoporosis.
Previous score was 2.4 12-2021. Big change.

Hope you have better luck with Evenity!

Sorry for another question but I'm not clear on your post. Are you saying before 10 months on Evenity your T score was -2.4 and after Evenity it was -4.3? If so, id your Dr have any opinions on why it didn't help you? sThank you.

Unfortunately I don't have other options because I live in a remote area.

After Evenity my T score when down to 4.3 from 2.4.
