Anyone on Forteo for osteoporosis?

Hi YoRo and welcome to A2K.

Since you haven't had any replies, I thought I'd try to help out and looked up some info for you.

There are two informative articles on www.webmd.com that you may wish to read.

Gives the background and side effects of the generic version of the Forteo brand name.

This is an article which urges people not to use the drug because of the risks of bone cancer the recent studies showed.

If you are experiencing side effects or have concerns about continued use of the drug, I recommend contacting your doctor and perhaps bringing along a copy of this article for discussion.
