Tymlos and Loss of Appetite
Has anyone on Tymlos experienced a loss of appetite, thus weight loss? I have been on Tymlos for 7 months and have experienced both. This was not a problem prior to being on Tymlos.
Has anyone experienced the above while on Forteo or Evenity?
Thank you!

Yes - I have been on tymlos for 18 months and had loss of appetite. Make sure your calcium level is ok because high level of calcium could also be the cause.
I was able to gain back 5 of the 10 pounds lost by eating a lot when I was hungry. It was not easy since I always would stop when almost full, ( hard to change many years of “dieting”) I would eat approximately another 2-3 hundred calories after the time I would normally stop eating. Maybe low fat cheese or yogurt with berries.
My 18 month bone scan showed good results ( I posted on another post) and will continue until 2 years on tymlos.

1 ReactionNormal labs. Endocrinologist didn't think loss of appetite and weight was related to Tymlos, thus seeking the input from others.
Thanks so much!
My internist and rheumatologist said it was a possible side effect - loss of appetite is also listed as side effect on drugs.com
