Teriparatide

Uses

Teriparatide is used in the treatment of osteoporosis. It is effective for treating osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and men who are at high risk of fractures.

How it Works

How Teriparatide Works Teriparatide is a synthetic form of the natural human hormone known as parathyroid hormone (PTH). It functions by increasing both the number and activity of bone-forming cells, called osteoblasts. This process strengthens the bones and reduces the risk of fractures.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Teriparatide include nausea, joint pain, headache, dizziness, weakness, constipation, pain, high blood pressure, diarrhea, dyspepsia, inflammation of the nose, cough, and pharyngitis.

Expert Advice

  • Teriparatide should be injected daily via subcutaneous injection in the thigh or abdomen.
  • Do not use Teriparatide for more than 2 years.
  • You may experience low blood pressure and dizziness during the initial days of treatment.
  • If you feel dizzy (light-headed) after the injection, sit or lie down until you feel better.
  • Contact your doctor immediately if you experience:
    • Nausea
    • Vomiting
    • Constipation
    • Low energy
    • Muscle weakness
  • These symptoms may indicate high calcium levels in your blood.
  • Inform your doctor if you are breastfeeding, pregnant, or planning to become pregnant.
  • Your doctor has prescribed Teriparatide to strengthen your bones and reduce the risk of fractures.

Frequently asked questions

No, Teriparatide is not a steroid. It is used to treat osteoporosis, particularly in postmenopausal women and men at increased fracture risk, often due to long-term steroid use.
Teriparatide should be avoided in patients with kidney impairment, Paget’s disease, bone cancers, or high serum calcium levels. It is also not recommended for children, young adults, pregnant, or lactating women. Always inform your doctor about your medical history and current medications before starting treatment.
Store Teriparatide in the refrigerator at 2°C to 8°C. Avoid freezing, as this can damage the medication. If stored properly, it can be used for up to 28 days after the first injection. Discard any unused pen after 28 days.
Teriparatide should not be taken for more than a 2-year course. Inform your doctor if you have previously used this medication, as it should not be repeated more than once in a lifetime.
