Actonel

Risedronate sodium (75mg) for osteoporosis
A rheumatologist offered me this treatment of Actonel at the rate of 2 pills per month-which I could have started in a year or two-because my osteoporosis level was becoming critical due to the onset of menopause yet quiet and also to a cortisone intake for 6 Month in 2005, which she cured me of an autoimmune meningitis with an 18-day coma. However, I began to feel in mid-August 2017 very stron...

Fosamax

Alendronate sodium (70mg) for osteoporosis
Because I take prednisone for RA, I also have to take Fosamax to prevent osteoporosis. Because I used it for too long, I spontaneously broke a bone in my thigh. The orthopaedist wanted to let it heal naturally, using crutches for ages. After one year it's still not completely better and so it turns out I need to have a screw inserted into it.

Prolia

Denosumab (60mg/ml) for osteoporosis
This injection was my very first (60 mg). In the second week after my arms and legs became very painful and I was feeling very tired. I'm having serious regret now. A long time ago I took Actonel and Calci chew D3 for 7 years, with very little effect and now this injection which will remain the first and last. My check up in 6 months time will let me know if there's even any positive result.

Prolia

Denosumab (60mg/ml) for osteoporosis
You need to inject this once every 6 months. Terrible pain in my joints and muscle pain. Also got RA but not even kenacort injections help. For me it's clear this is from the Prolia. Never even had this much pain with the RA. Tried once and never, ever again. There isn't even a wash out for it. So I have to live the with effects for 6-9 months. As much regret as there are hairs on my head.

Fosamax

Alendronate sodium (70mg) for osteoporosis
The number of side effects combined with my anxiety about the risk of dying from a bone or cartilage problem was all the motivation I needed to start taking this medicine quickly. I'm not convinced of its effectiveness because although there certainly is an improvement in my bones, they are still porous according to the scan and so still eminently breakable.
