Drug therapy for osteoporosis in older adults

Andrade-Molina, Melissa
- 01 Mar 2022 - 
TL;DR: For example, the authors showed that anabolic agents have greater anti-fracture efficacy and produce larger increases in bone density than anti-resorptive drugs. But, the effects of anabolic drugs are transient and the optimal strategy for cycling anabolics, antiresorptives, and off-treatment periods remains to be determined.
