Abstract
Except for bisphosphonates, the duration of anti-osteoporotic treatment is not limited to 3 to 5 years. T-score between - 2.0 and - 1.5 DS might be the BMD target to reach before considering discontinuing anti-osteoporosis treatment. A rebound of bone remodeling can occur in some patients despite receiving zoledronate after denosumab discontinuation, and the monitoring of CTX is required. There is no benefit of vitamin D supplementation on musculoskeletal health in the general population, but vitamin D remains indicated in patients with vitamin D deficiency or receiving osteoporosis treatment. A sequential treatment with romosozumab during one year, a bone anabolic anti-sclerostin antibody, followed by two years of denosumab, decreases vertebral and non-vertebral fractures with rapid and substantial BMD gains after 3 years.Entities:
