Osteoporosis treatments can be inconvenient – you have to sit up or stand for at least 30 minutes after taking your pill and can cause nasty effects, including chronic heartburn. Now there is an alternative: liquid that will be infuse into your vein in a doctor’s office or hospital. It takes 15min and the best past is you only need it once a year, possibly because so much of the medicine is taken up by the bone. Base on the study, women with osteoporosis who were given this liquid suffered 70 and 41% fewer spine and hip fracture, respectively than those who got a placebo. Still needed daily doses of calcium and vitamin D.
