Tymlos pens - can you still take a smaller dose?
I am about to start Tymlos, and the pharmacist from the specialty pharmacy told me that the pen only has two settings - 0 mg and 80 mg. and it doesn't click in between. Though he admits he only has touched a tester pen and obviously, the materials from the manufacturer don't explain how to get a smaller dose.
I really want to try a smaller dose at first cause I have a heart condition and am very worried about side effects. Is there anyone out there who is currently doing a reduced dose of Tymlos? I plan to try to titrate up, and understand this may not be an exact science, but would love any advice.
Thanks for any input.

@gently has great advice!! Exactly what I would say and I’m 18 months in on Tymlos. Listen for the clicks, work your way up.
