A tooth with a life of it's own!
But I had been on other ones -
Evista
, Actonel, Fosamax before the alendronate. Further I am currently on a proton pump inhibitor and H2 blockers, which aren't great either for the bones.

Evista (ralixifene) for osteoporosis
Has anyone taken
Evista
for a year or more? If so, did your osteoporosis improve, stay same or get worse? Any side effects? Thanks, this was prescribed for me and after much thought and great hesitation due to possible side effects, I recently started it.

Evista - Raloxifene allergic reaction
Wasn't sure about taking this med because of potential side effects. Decided to try and after my first dose, experienced itchy skin about 2 hours later. Took benadryl and itchy skin subsided by end of day. No one is sure if it it is an allergic reaction. Recommend to stop and try a few days later

Which osteoporosis drugs help pain
Has anyone noticed a reduction in pain whilst on either risodrenate,

Raloxifene (Evista) osteoporosis drug and PD
Research in mice shows that the osteoporosis drug "raloxifene" (brand name
Evista
) may help prevent dopaminergic neuron loss. Just wondered if anyone here is taking it already for osteoporosis, and has it helped your PD?

Evista to prevent recurrence of IDC?
Now considering Letrozole vs Tamoxifen vs
Evista
. Don't like the side effects of Letrozole or Tamoxifen. I favor
Evista
due to recent diagnosis of osteopenia. Has anyone else had experience with
Evista
?

What to take to discontinue Prolia safely and for how long?
The endocrinologist has given me 4 options: 1) take the risk of fracturing (about 15%, from what I've gleaned from the medical literature); 2) Aclasta (zoledronic acid) infusion; 3) bisphosphonates; 4)
Evista
(raloxifene).

Prolia Denounced -
In osteoporosis, when non-drug means and the intake of calcium and vitamin D are effective insufficient, alendronic acid (Fosamax ° or other), or even raloxifene (
Evista
° or other) as an alternative, have a better risk-benefit balance, despite the significant limitations of these drugs.

Hypothyroid - Urged Tamoxifen or Evista to prevent breast cancer
She said that I would probably be urged to take Tamoxifen or
Evista
to prevent future breast cancer. The surgeon said the same thing during the pre-surgical appointment.

Risedronate (Actonel),raloxifene (Evista) or teriparatide (Forsteo)? Which do I choose? Experiences?
My preference is Forsteo (if my specialist will prescribe it - health care system is not public like NHS so options are often available), or
Evista
/raloxifene.

Raloxifene (Evista)
So she is recommending Raloxifene (
Evista
) It is an estrogen modulator that decreases the risk of breast cancer in postmenopausal women. It also promotes bone strength and is used to treat osteoporosis. Is anyone familiar with or taking this med to prevent estrogen receptor positive breast cancer?

LEVOTHYROXINE INTERACTIONS - useful list
Raloxifene (
EVISTA
), used to treat osteoporosis, may reduce the absorption of levothyroxine, although the evidence to date is not sufficient to establish the extent of the interaction. In one case, separating the two drugs by 12 hours appeared to avert the interaction.
