Teriparatide & Eye swelling/reaction

Posted by isafelfeli2933 @isafelfeli2933, Aug 19 12:59pm

I just started Teriparatide injections last week & after a few days, I started having eyelid swelling. I went to my eye doctor & started treating it for an eye infection. After a couple days, my eyes got worse & when were trying to figure out what's causing it, we looked up online & found out, it can be a rare side effect. Has anyone had a similar experience with forteo?

I did not. However, I have had worsening symptoms for the same thing because of the medication they gave me for my eye!
