How does Osteoporosis treatment work?

  •  Slowing down the cells that break down bone (osteoclasts) – known as ‘antiresorptive’ drugs

  • stimulating the cells that build new bone (osteoblasts) – known as ‘anabolic’ drugs

  • a combination of both.

  • Osteoporosis treatments don't reduce the pain caused by broken bones. But there are other treatments and ways to manage pain.

Some Common FAQ

For patients with severe osteoporosis.

This usually means patients who have already had a number of fractures / broken bones (as opposed to those patients where their osteoporosis may have been picked up on screening with a DEXA scan).

For patients who have continued to lose bone despite medical treatment.

This is picked up on repeat DEXA scans. Remember repeat scans should always be done on the same machine as there are differences between machines.

Patients who are intolerant of tablet treatments for osteoporosis.

There are certain medical treatments which can be accessed through medical specialists which can be given by injection or intravenous infusion.
