Drugs used for osteoporosis
• Antiresorptive drugs

Bisphosphonates
Calcitonin
Estrogen
SERM’s
Denosumab
• Bone formation stimulators
- PTH (Teriparatide)
• Dual action
- Strontium
Vitamin D
and
calcium
Vitamin D and calcium
• Daily 800 IU of vitamin D is associated
with a reduction in hip fractures of 30%
and in nonvertebral fractures of 14%
• Fall reduction in the elderly
• Therapeutic dose of vitamin D: 600-800
unit
Vitamin D and calcium
• Calcium: 1000-1300mg
• Avoid taking more than 500 mg of
calcium in one dose.
• Take one dose before bedtime to
prevent bone loss at night. If more is
needed, take several doses throughout
the day.
• Calcium supplements should be taken
with meals to boost their absorption.
Vitamin D and calcium
• Certain substances can hinder absorption
of calcium: foods rich in fibres and fat,
zinc, iron, spinach, coffee, alcohol and
antacids. Therefore, calcium should not
be taken together with these.
• Calcium may interfere with certain drugs,
including: thyroid medications,
tetracycline, anticonvulsants and
corticosteroids. Therefore, these should
always be taken separately.
Vitamin D and calcium
• There is no need to worry about
development of kidney stones if the
correct dosage in the suitable form of
calcium is taken together with sufficient
fluid.
• Calcium supplements can cause gas,
abdominal distension and constipation in
some individuals. In this situation, it is
reasonable to switch to a different
preparation.
Bisphosphonates
Bisphosphonates
• The most commonly prescribed therapy
for OP prevention and management
• Mechanism: inhibits bone resorption by
attaching to bony surfaces undergoing
active resorption and inhibiting action of
osteoclasts
-
Farensyl pyrophosphate synthase
-GTPase
-Attachment of osteoclast
Bisphosphonates-place in treatment
• Prevention and treatment of
postmenopausal osteoporosis
• Osteoporosis in men
• Prevention and treatment of GIOP
Bisphosphonates
• Alendronate use for 10 years cause a
continuous increase in vertebral
(13.7%) and hip trochanter (10.3%)
bone mineral density (BMD)
• Decrease incidence of vertebral, hip,
and all non-vertebral fractures by 50%
• 90% reduction of multiple radiographic
vertebral fractures at year 3
Bisphosphonates-Adverse events
• Gastrointestinal problems, such as
difficulty swallowing, gastric ulcers, and
inflammation of the esophagus.
• Hypocalcemia (18%)
• Hypophosphatemia (10%)
• Musculoskeletal pain, cramps
Bisphosphonates-Adverse events
• Atrial fibrillation (3-50/100000):
zoledronic acid
• Osteonecrosis of the jaw (1/100000): IV
bisphosphonates
• Atypical femur fracture
Bisphosphonates-Contraindications
• Abnormalities of the esophagus which
delay esophageal emptying, such as
stricture or achalasia
• Inability to stand or sit upright for at least
30 minutes
• Patients at increased risk of aspiration
• Hypocalcemia
• Pregnancy
• Renal insufficiency (Not recommended if
CrCl < 30-35 ml/min)
Bisphosphonates-Dosing
• Alendronate: 10 mg/day or 70 mg once
weekly at least 30 minutes before eating
or drinking
• Risedronate: 5 mg/day, 35 mg once
weekly, or 150 mg once monthly
• Ibandronate: 150 mg once monthly at
least 60 minutes before eating or drinking
• Zoledronate: 5 mg administered
intravenously (IV) once yearly
Bisphosphonates-Duration of therapy
• The optimal duration: 5 years
Repair (up to 12 months)
Rebuilding (6–36 months)
Maintenance (24–60 months)
• After 7 years of therapy the bone mass
still increased by about 1% a year.
However, a drug holiday after 5 years of
alendronate therapy is advisable to avoid
any possible microdamage accumulation,
at least in low-risk patients.
Other medications
Raloxifene
• Mechanism: tissue-selective activity,
acts as an estrogen agonist on bone
- Estrogen antagonist on breast, uterus
• Approved only for the prevention and
treatment of postmenopausal
osteoporosis.
Raloxifene
• Reduce the incidence of vertebral
fractures by 30-50%
• Reduction of the risk of invasive breast
cancer in postmenopausal women with
osteoporosis
• Reduction in the risk of invasive breast
cancer in postmenopausal women at
high risk of invasive breast cancer.
Raloxifene: Adverse events
• Frequency > 10%
– Hot flashes
– Arthralgia
– Sinusitis
• Frequency 1-10%
–
–
–
–
–
Chest pain
Insomnia
Migraines
Peripheral edema
Diaphoresis
• An increased risk of DVT: risk is similar
to reported risk of HRT
Raloxifene: Containdications
•
•
•
•
History of DVT/PTE or at high risk
Cardiovascular disease
History of uterine/cervical carcinoma
Discontinue at least 72 hours prior to
and during prolonged immobilization
Raloxifene-Dosing
• For prevention and treatment
– 60 mg PO once daily
• Can be taken any time of day without
regard to meals
Calcitonin
• Approved for treatment of
postmenopausal osteoporosis
• Mechanism:
– Peptide composed of 32 amino acids which
binds to osteoclasts and inhibits bone
resorption
Calcitonin-Dosing
• Nasal 200 international units daily
• Contraindications
– Clinical allergy to calcitonin-salmon
• Precautions
– Nasal ulcerations
– Tachyphylaxis (parenteral dosage forms)
• Drug interactions (DI)

Teriparatide
• Prevention and treatment of
postmenopausal osteoporosis
• Treatment of osteoporosis in men
• Treatment of GIOP
Teriparatide
• The BMD of the lumbar spine increased
by 12.2% in the women receiving
teriparatide and by 5.6% in the women
receiving alendronate (at 14 months)
Body et al. 2002
• Teriparatide was found to reduce
vertebral fractures by 65% and
nonvertebral fractures by 53%
Teriparatide-Place in Therapy
• Women or men with severe osteoporosis
and at least one fragility fracture

considered after discontinuation of PTH
to maintain gains in BMD acquired with
PTH alone in those at high risk for
subsequent fracture

RANK ligand, which is produced by the
osteoblast, from attaching to its receptor
on the osteoclast
• The BMD increase 3-6.7% in the spine
and 1.9-3.6% at the hips (1 years)
Mc Clung et al. 2006
• The BMD increase up to 18.5% in the
spine and 8.2% at the hips (6 years)
Papapoulos et al. 2013
Denosumab

with osteoporosis with the use of
denosumab versus placebo

history of fracture, women with
multiple risk factors for fracture
- Patients who failed or are intolerant of
other available therapies
Denosumab
• The recommended dosing of
denosumab is 60 mg subcutaneously
every 6 months.
• Unlike the bisphosphonates,
denosumab may be used in those with
renal impairment provided that
monitoring of calcium, phosphorus, and
magnesium is carried out

fractures, hip fracture and nonvertebral fracture by 40%, 40% and
15% respectively
Strontium

an osteoporotic vertebral fracture
• T-score ≤-2
• T-score from -1.5 to -2 plus at least one
of the following risk factors for fracture:
thinness, history of fragility fracture
(other than skull, facial bone, ankle,
finger, and toe) since menopause, and
history of hip fracture in a parent.
Who should be treated-NOF guideline
• Postmenopausal women and men age 50
and older who present with
- T ≤-2.5 at the femoral neck or spine
- Hip or vertebral fracture

spine and a 10-year probability of a hip
fracture ≥3% or a 10-year probability
of a major osteoporosis-related fracture
≥20%
FRAX
Selection of drug
• Bisphosphonates recommended as firstline therapy for postmenopausal
osteoporosis.
• Oral bisphosphonates are preferred
• For individuals with gastrointestinal
intolerance: IV bisphosphonates
Selection of drug
• Raloxifene was reserved for patients who
cannot tolerate any bisphosphonates or
for women with osteoporosis and
increased risk of invasive breast cancer.
Selection of drug
• Denosumab could be used as initial
therapy in certain patients at high risk for
fracture, such as older patients who have
difficulty with the dosing requirements of
oral bisphosphonates.
• Denosumab may have a role in patients
who are intolerant of or unresponsive to
other therapies and in those with impaired
renal function.
Selection of drug
• Teriparatide should be reserved for
treating women at high fracture risk,
including those with very low bone mineral
density (T-score worse than -3.0) with a
previous vertebral fracture.
Follow up strategies
• Repeat DXA every 2 year using the same
machine and technician if possible
• The lowest significant change is 3-4% at
spine, 4-6% at hip and 2% at elbow
• If desired response not achieved
- Re-evaluate the adherence to
treatment regimen
- Reconsider secondary OP
- Consider changing patient medication
Combination therapy
• Combination of bisphosphonateraloxifene therapy is not recommended
as the additional BMD benefits are small
and there is no proven additional fracture
benefit.
• Combination therapy using PTH with
raloxifene may enhance the bone
forming effects of PTH.
Combination therapy
• Combination of PTH with alendronate
blunts the effect of PTH and is not
recommended
• Teriparatide combined with denosumab
increased BMD more than either agent
alone and more than has been reported
with other approved
