Medications To Prevent & Treat Osteoporosis
Calcitonin, brand name Miacalcin, is a naturally occurring hormone involved in calcium regulation and bone metabolism. In women who are more than 5 years beyond menopause, calcitonin slows bone loss, increases spinal bone density, and, according to anecdotal reports, may relieve the pain associated with bone fractures.
