Tymlos 6 clicks

Posted by phaddad1966 @phaddad1966, Dec 30, 2025

I’m 59 years old. Started on forteo in August. I was on it for 6 weeks but the body pain was horrible. I took 2 weeks off and then started Tymlos. Started at 2 clicks and have been on 6 clicks for several months now. I do well with it. When I went up past 6, the pain was unbearable. I’m not due for a bone density scan until January 30, but I was wondering if anyone had an increase just doing 6 clicks?

WindyShores reported large gains on 6-7 clicks. Which dosage she chose based on what she had to do that day.

Did you react different to each dose. I was thinking on trying the same thing.

I’m 64 and have been on five clicks for three weeks. I think I feel fine but I’m hyper aware of every twinge in my body and I can’t decide if I sometimes feel lightheaded or if it’s my mind messing with me. Planning on going up to six clicks in a few days. I’m incredibly nervous about this medication and appreciate hearing others people experiences.

I’m extremely nervous as well. I do well on 6 clicks. I inject it at night and I get a little nauseous and uncomfortable but it goes away after a few hours. I can’t go past 6 though. Pain is unbearable. Best of luck to you. Hope it goes well.

I’ve never heard of it.

Hello, I am 58 and I only take 4 clicks but I started with the 8 clicks last July and could not handle the muscle pain and headaches. I currently take it right when I go to bed and seem to endure side effects better. Best of luck!

Hi I started this past August and feel out of sorts on the full dosage. I’m currently at 4 clicks and my MD agreed I do that. I will try to go about a click next week and see what happens.
I do feel more achy and very tired on the full dosage.

Thank you for your reply. I’m planning to try five clicks at night starting tonight. I like the idea of not worrying about timing my exercise routine with the injections. Hoping it won’t affect my sleep which isn’t the best to begin with.
