“…Changes in BMD at the 1/3 radius have been shown to be limited with many antiresorptives ; however, a statistically significant increase in BMD of the 1/3 radius was observed with denosumab treatment, compared with risedronate treatment, at month 24. The treatment difference for BMD at each skeletal site was larger at month 24 than at month 12, reflecting the progressive increase for most measures of BMD in the denosumab group versus the plateau in the risedronate group beyond 12 months, which has also been shown in other studies .…”

“…However, inconvenient dosing regimens and potential side effects of bisphosphonates can lead to low adherence in patients with osteoporosis . Furthermore, the increase in bone mineral density (BMD) with bisphosphonate therapy plateaus after 3–4 years . Teriparatide may also reduce fracture risk in those taking glucocorticoids , but daily injections and restriction to a 2‐year lifetime for treatment limit its use.…”

“…The range of symptoms that included specific (e.g., myalgia) and nonspecific (e.g., back pain, headache) AE terms were evaluated by onset and duration. The incidence of these symptoms was higher with ibandronate 1 mg than with oral risedronate, possibly due to the different administration routes, but they were reported at a similar frequency to previous studies [1, 9]. Symptoms defined as APR were mild to moderate in intensity, transient and associated with the first administration, as reported in earlier trials of ibandronate in osteoporosis [1, 4].…”

“…In the randomized, double-blind trial BONE (oral iBandronate Osteoporosis vertebral fracture trial in North America and Europe), oral ibandronate 2.5 mg/day or 20 mg every other day for 12 doses every 3 months significantly reduced the risk of vertebral fracture and increased bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine and total hip versus placebo [3]. Two further randomized studies, MOBILE (Monthly Oral iBandronate In LadiEs) [2, 46] and DIVA (Dosing IntraVenous Administration) [1, 79], confirmed the noninferiority of BMD gains in the lumbar spine with 100 and 150 mg once-monthly tablets or 2 mg/2 months or 3 mg/3 months intravenous (IV) injections to those with daily oral ibandronate 2.5 mg for up to 5 years. The efficacy of ibandronate in increasing BMD in male osteoporosis patients has also been reported [10].…”

“…In most of the studies a maximum five years follow-up is done, although a treatment continuous for ten years is also accepted. Moreover, there are several studies concerning the safety of long term treatments (ten years) [36-42]. With respect to the use of combined therapies (teriparatide and bisphosphonates), it is a usual clinical practice in the osteoporosis treatment [43-47].…”
