has anybody had a problem with weight gain on teriperatide? I started a daily injection with Terrossa just over 2 months ago. I am very active but despite this I have gained half a stone.

Hi I had Terraparatide for two years and had no problems. I presume Terrossa is what’s in the injection or is it something else?

Terrossa is the brand name for the epipen. I think it might be one of the less common side effects. Thanks for responding. Are you on another drug now?

I have been on Forteo for two years and have struggled with my weight from about 2 months on. I’m on a another Forteo site and many are complaining about weight gain.

Hi Zumbablue

I had Teraparatide for two years and on the contrary I actually lost weight which for me was a bad thing not a good thing.
