- Abstract
The objective of this study was to examine the association between teriparatide adherence and healthcare utilization and costs in real-world US kyphoplasty/vertebroplasty (KV) patients. Among KV patients newly initiating teriparatide, significantly increased pharmacy costs associated with high teriparatide adherence were offset by significantly lower inpatient utilization and medical costs.
