Experienced Osteoporosis Specialists

Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a progressive bone disease that leads to an increased risk of bone fractures. It occurs when the body either does not produce enough new bone or it breaks down existing bone faster than it can be replaced. This leads to weakening of the bones, making them more prone to fractures and then pain. Identifying osteoporosis often starts with a bone density test to assess the overall bone mineral density.

At Denver Arthritis Clinic, we discuss the current work-up, management and treatment regimens for prevention of bone fractures. Our team of experienced specialists focus on each and every patient as an individual to determine the best treatment for osteoporosis that suits your unique needs.

Comprehensive Therapies for Osteoporosis

Our physicians are experienced in administering the correct dosage of medication necessary to achieve the best results. The medications we utilize for osteoporosis include:

  • Zoledronic acid: A bisphosphonate drug that helps to slow down bone loss and reduce the risk of fractures.
  • Denosumab: An antibody medication that targets certain cells in the body to help prevent bone breakdown.
  • Abaloparatide: A hormone therapy that increases bone formation, helping to strengthen bones and reduce the risk of fractures.
  • Teriparatide: A type of parathyroid hormone therapy that assists with bone regeneration and fracture prevention.
  • Evenity (romosozumab): This medication works with your body's natural ability to build new bone and, to a lesser extent, slow down bone loss, increasing bone formation.
