Experiences with

Raloxifene

I finished 11 months of Evenity and went onto very low dose Actonel (5 mg x 2 a week) which caused non stop bad migraine and achiness and aching teeth, I came off and was given Raloxifene. Will this be strong enough to keep the gains?

I’m also on Tamoxifen for breast cancer but may switch to Raloxifene which could help a little.

looking at taking Raloxifene as I cannot tolerate bisphosphonates. Does anyone have any advice or willing to share their experience of this drug please

I have severe OP, had 5 compression fractures, 2 years of teriparatide, now on Raloxifene. Over the last week I’ve had nasty hip pain, much worse at night. It eases with exercise, is worse with sitting and standing.

I spoke with my GP and after some discussion I am going to try Raloxifene. It works in a different way to the other treatments (AA and Riseondrate) so I’m hoping I can manage this new regime . Has anyone been on Raloxifine? 🤞

Proteasome Enhancers: Raloxifene: This FDA-approved drug, traditionally used for osteoporosis, has shown some promise in preclinical studies for enhancing proteasomal degradation of misfolded alpha-synuclein.

I had 2 years of teriparatide and I’m now on Raloxifene. I’ve had no further fractures, fingers crossed that continues.

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

Anyone any experience of taking this?

I am looking at Strontium Ranelate, I am in the UK so can get this, although I think the aspartamine in it will give me migraine which I get a lot, also, Raloxifene, but not sure this will prevent fractures enough, biodentical hormones are a possibility, maybe calcitonin as I have heard it prevents migraine

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?

The medical agents include raloxifene, a drug for osteoporosis, remdesivir, an antiviral drug approved in Japan as a COVID-19 treatment, and pioglitazone, used to treat diabetes.

The alternative recommendation is raloxifene. I am very reluctant to take any drugs. My femoral bones are fine. It's just the L4, little used part of the spine, that is an issue. My questions please: 1.

EU-funded consortium Exscalate4CoV has announced that an already registered generic drug used to treat osteoporosis, Raloxifene, could be an effective treatment for COVID-19 patients with mildly symptomatic infection.

A few days after talking to her, I found a paper in the medical literature entitled "Raloxifene has no efficacy in reducing... the risk of spontaneous vertebral fractures...", so crossed that one off the list!

Has anyone else experienced improvement while taking Raloxifene ? Thanks for any comments.

I've been diagnosed with osteoporosis in my spine, had first hospital appt about it last Wednesday, consultant has changed me from Tamoxifen to Raloxifene to improve my spine, reading up on it one POSSIBLE side effect is Peripheral Oedema, as I already have Lymphodema in my breasts and no nodes in my

He's chenged me to Raloxifene to try and improve my bones, anyone have any thought on this

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.

I’m nearly 4mths into treatment with Raloxifene without any side effects but it is good to know there is now another option, without having to consider bisphosonates.
