| How does alendronate compare to teriparatide for treatment of corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis? |
| The anabolic response associated with teriparatide or PTH may actually be blunted by bisphosphonates. |
| Lilly will market teriparatide under the brand name Forteo. |
| In premenopausal women, teriparatide, but not alendronate, significantly increased spine and hip BMD above baseline. |
| The osteoporosis drug, teriparatide, works by increasing the action of osteoblasts, the bone-building cells, causing bones to become denser and more resistant to fractures, officials said. |
| Dr. Colman said the warning would discuss studies that showed some rats injected with teriparatide developed osteosarcomas, a rare and serious bone cancer. |
