- Title
Differential Effects of Strontium Ranelate, Bisphosphonates and Teriparatide on Bone Microstructure: Fact or Fiction?
- Authors
Compston, Juliet E.
- Abstract
In this article, the author discusses the effects of bisphosphonates, strontium ranelate and teriparatide drugs on cortical bone structure of women. The author notes that teriparatide has increased cortical thickness and porosity and stresses that strontium ranelate's implication on bone microstructure has been problematic and less apparent due to the modest changes assessed by turnover markers. She cites the need to further investigate the effect of strontium in improving bone structure.
