Osteoporosis treatments?

Posted by Racer on December 2, 2004, at 14:59:17

OK, who here knows anything about treating osteopenia and/or osteoporosis? It's going to be a couple of weeks to get the results of my bone mineral density scan back, but I'm more than an inch shorter than I used to be, so I'm betting it's not gonna be great news, you know? So, I've looked up the drugs I know about on Medline, and will look them up eventually on rxlist, but I wanted to hear from anyone who might have first or second hand knowledge of the various treatments.
Larry? What do you know about all this? I know you're the Mineral Man. (Wasn't that a kid's song? "Do you know the Mineral Man, Mineral Man, Mineral Man...")
