Does Anyone Know Of A Rx Medication To Treat Osteoporosis That Doesn't Cause Fatigue?

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Roswell, GA 30076

Prolia causes fatigue in 45% of the people who take it. I want an Rx med that doesn't cause fatigue.

Janice,
That is also my plan if I can stop Prolia and safely switch to just Primal Bone Health.

Do You Have To Take Unsafe "bone-building" Drugs To Stop Osteoporosis From Getting Worse?

A MyOsteoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Anderson, SC

I have had osteopenia for a few years, but for about a year now, I have to take hydrocortisone daily for adrenal insufficiency. My last dexa scan 2 months ago shows I now have osteoporosis. I take 5000 units of D3, k2, boron, and magnesium daily. I dont have a rheumatologist anymore because I fired her about a year or so ago. She wasn't helping at all. What else can I do?

A MyOsteoTeam Member

Diet, exercise, and a positive attitude goes a long way. Stay on what you are taking. Blessings upon your journey 🤗
