Susan from Calgary asks: I have osteoporosis, with bone density loss in my hip and my spine. How can I rebuild bones without taking a bisphosphonate – I had to stop due to serious side effects after 8 weeks.
Fortunately, there are many different options for osteoporosis treatment today. Taking appropriate doses of Calcium and Vitamin D, as well as weight bearing exercises, are key. For more on osteoporosis, we have information on our webpage here, with the most up to date options on medication treatments listed on a sister site at naop.ca (Northern Alberta Osteoporosis Program).
