Osteoporosis meds

Hi everyone,

I have severe osteoporosis, and was told that I need to start daily Forteo injections for 2 years to build up my bone. Has anyone here experienced adverse effects on RLS due to osteoporosis meds?

Thanks for any information you may care to share!

hi nocturne ,

I have been on movymia teriparatide for 3 months now , which must be very similar to Forteo teriparatide. I wondered at first if my RLS was worse but I don’t think it was any different. I just think I was looking for trouble or maybe even an improvement.

I’m so happy to be on a medication which might improve my severely crumbling bones and I hope it works well for you too . Plus I hope you don’t get any side effects .

🤗

Thank you so much, Kakally, for your reply! I looked up movymia teriparatide, and you're right; it sounds very similar to Forteo. I feel better after reading about your side-effect free experience. I hope you continue to do well on it. Thank you again!
