Acceptability and engagement amongst patients on oral and intravenous bisphosphonates for the treatment of osteoporosis in older adults (2022)
Journal Article
Narayanasamy, M., Bishop, S., Sahota, O., Paskins, Z., Gittoes, N., & Langley, T. (2022). Acceptability and engagement amongst patients on oral and intravenous bisphosphonates for the treatment of osteoporosis in older adults. Age and ageing, https://doi.org/10.1093/ageing/afac255

Background: Osteoporosis is common in older adults leading to fragility fractures at enormous individual and economic cost. Improving long-term adherence with bisphosphonate treatments reduces fracture risk, but adherence rates for first line oral bi...

JBMR Plus, 6(5), S270 - S270. https://doi.org/10.1002/jbm4.10620

Bisphosphonates have been found to be effective in preventing fragility fractures. However, their comparative effectiveness in populations at risk has yet to be defined. In light of recent clinical trials, we aimed to compare four bisphosphonates (al...
