Osteoporosis Treatment Alternatives To Bisphosphonates
Big Pharma employs a lot of very serious spin-doctors. I’ll give you a good example.
Bisphosphonates For Osteoporosis?
A new study just came out on bisphosphonate drugs. These are the most commonly prescribed drugs for osteoporosis. They’re worth about $8.5 billion per year to the drug companies.
But this new study says that one-third of the women taking these drugs are still at high risk for fractures.

For treating a leading cause of osteoporosis, surgery is better than widely used medications
While most cases of osteoporosis are caused by normal aging, another leading cause of the bone-loss disease is a condition called hyperparathyroidism, in which the parathyroid glands release an excessive amount of a hormone that regulates the body’s calcium levels.
Doctors commonly treat hyperparathyroidism using a class of prescription drugs called bisphosphonates, including alendronate (marketed under the brand name Fosamax) and ibandronate (Boniva), which are supposed to strengthen bones.
Now, a study led by scientists at UCLA found that those drugs actually increase the risk of fracture, meaning that taking them is w...
