EVENITY is a prescription medicine used to treat osteoporosis in women after menopause who are at high risk of fracture, (See More) or cannot use another osteoporosis medicine or other osteoporosis medicines did not work well.
What can you do to reduce your risk of another fracture?
After menopause, your body begins to lose more bone than it creates, which leaves your bones brittle and can increase your fracture risk. Take this opportunity to be proactive with your doctor.
A broken bone is a serious sign that your postmenopausal osteoporosis could be getting worse and that another life-altering fracture could be in your future.
After an osteoporosis-related fracture, you’re 5x more likely to suffer
another fracture within a year.
Talk to your doctor about finding a treatment that can help reduce your risk.
Why EVENITY?EVENITY works differently. Most commonly prescribed postmenopausal osteoporosis treatments work one way: either to help you build new bone or to help you slow bone loss.
As you discuss your treatment options with your doctor, consider this: Only EVENITY both builds new bone and slows bone loss to a lesser degree.
Ask your doctor if building new bone and helping to slow bone loss with EVENITY in just 12 months is right for you.
