When I took the oral tablets they gave me problems with my jaw. I was app for Prolia but it can also lead to jaw problems. Forteo is a daily injection in stomach for 2 years. The if you don’t take something else after the 2 years your body is depleted of the Forteo.

Hi Jodi,
I have severe osteoporosis for a few yrs now. I have a Prolia shot
every 6 mos. I am very sensitive to meds...had no problem with this.
hope this helps....

The reason for wanting to put me on Forteo is because the multiple rib fractures and plate attached to my ribs a year ago in May during surgery haven’t completely healed.

I've been on the generic Fosamax for 2 years. It's called Alendronate Sodium. I had osteopenia for many years. Gradually became osteoporosis. My mom had very severe osteoporosis. I didn't want to take the medication but the endocrinologist convinced me. I have not had any side effects from it.

I do to, but haven’t heard of forteo?
