Stoma with Denosumab osteoporosis medication

Hi,

I am posting the same thing in the osteoporosis forum and the stoma forum at the suggestion of my friend.

My mum has had a stoma for over 50 years and is also on osteoporosis medication. Her doctor has suggested she moves to Denosumab which contains sorbitol and is a twice yearly injection.

She thinks she may have a sorbitol intolerance and particularly with her stoma (she has had everything removed) she has no large intestine to absorb it and is worried how it may affect her.

Has anyone got experience of this medication plus a stoma? I know this may be a long shot!

Thanks in advance
