What comes after Evenity?

Posted by laurensb @laurensb, Dec 1, 2023

I have been been on Fosamax for 6 years total starting in 2009 with various drug holidays during the years. I was on Raloxifene for 3 years. Started Evenity in June. What are people taking after the year of Evenity is up?

No rebound effect. It's not uncommon to experience flu-like symptoms for 3-4 days following the infusion. Some people have found it to be pretty intense. Some don't experience it at all. It's like with all the bone meds, there are some side effects that you may or may not experience yourself.

A while ago, I think I read that after one year (12 monthly injections) of Evenity, it's possible to take another med to lock in the gains for the next year, then resume Evenity for 1 more year of 12 monthly injections. Has anyone done this? If so, what med did you go on for the year in between? Then after that 3rd year, what medication did you go on?
