Prolia Side Effects (Page 20)

I would like to know of any side effects others may have experienced after receiving Prolia infusions. Up to now I have none.

REPORT

After 2 injections of Prolia I found I couldn't walk; had 3 stress fractures of right hip. Dr. didn't believe it was caused by drug & gave me a 3rd injection. Two months after that an x-ray showed I had stress fracture of right side of pelvis. That was a year ago and I finally feel "almost normal" but still find long walks impossible.

I took one shot with no side effects. Three months after second shot I started suffering back pain, neck pain upper thigh pain, muscle pain and severe joint pain. That's all but two of the common side effects listed in their information guide. Still suffering at the end of 12 months and I refuse to take another shot even though my medical professionals say they don't think this pain is caused from Prolia. I'm worse off than before I took these shots.

Sounds like my doctors reaction. When I couldn't walk after 2 injections he gave me a third saying things would have been worse without Prolia. How can these doctors be so stupid.

I have been taking Protos now for several years. No problems and my bone density is increasing every time I have a scan. Protos is Strontium Raelate and is taken every night with water. Its granules and tastes like nothing really, just water. Interesting to read you comments and my doctor has asked if I want to go on to the prolia injection

Did your doctor prescribe Potos? How bad was your bone density when you
started Protos? Can you give me a little more info on this Stontium Raelate?

My doctor prescribed protos when I broke my wrist in 2007. At the time my bone density was decreasing. My last bone density this year shows remarkable increases so now on hip bone I am not osteoporotic any more and just osteopaenia in the spine. Something like 9 and 12% increases on last test 3 years ago. One of the side effects of protos is blood clots so my doctor wants me to go on to prolia injection as I've been on protos for a long time. For that reason I will probably try the injection which is 6 monthly, less expensive than protos and dont have to take it every night. Still unsure will probably try a 6 month shot

After reading most of these medschats and do not feel the risks of Prolia is worth it. Did you have any blood clots while you were on the Protos? Is it a prescription? I've taken every med available for osteoporosis in past 17yrs. Have you take Forteo? It is a 2yr. treatment, an injection daily. I did respond to it when nothing else worked, unfortunately you can take it only once in a lifetime.

My name is Esther and I am 68. I have been in pretty good health until 2 months after my second Prolia injection. My mouth, jaw, gums hurt, even my tongue is sensitive. My back bothers me and my leg also is in pain. I get tired easier and often. I am nog myself. This January will be 6 months since my last shot anc I pray that this medicine leaves my body soon.

I have the floater in my eye along with many other horrible side effects I posted previously. Just didn't connect the floater. Thanks for posting. This December will be a year since I was given the Polia POISON. My doctor needs to take an injection and then tell me that Prolia is safe!!!!!

I was hoping that the horrible sideffects of PROLIA would stop after 6 months -I had a shot in May 2013. Unfortunately, this poison stays in the body for longer period of time. Although the intensity of sideffects has slightly decreased, but I still have a floater in my eye and continue having panes and aches in my bones and muscles. Hope one day it will leave my body for good!!!

My mother who is 84 and has undiagnosed osteoporosis since she was in her late 30's has had many treatments for the condition. This summer she was given Prolia 'as a last resort' by her consultant rheumatologist at a major London hospital. Since taking the injection here legs have been swollen, red, and in the evenings she has 'biting' pains or cramps in the legs. Like many other comments the consultant has stated ' it is nothing to do with Prolia, see your GP'. She had previously had 24-months of Forsteo daily injections, very beneficial with no side effects but the promised for long term benefits of reduced bone density loss proved misplaced. As her son we cannot wait for Prolia to wear off, she is not taking it again.

Unfortunately, all these side effects take a long time to wear off ! Some never go away. In any case, it is POISON, to our systems, and they should have law suits brought against the company & doctors they con into giving out this medicine ! This is the worst drug I have ever taken. Every night my hips wake me up with pain ! And my body is always stiff and sore. Good Luck to all who take this drug, this is not a drug to take for anyone.

It has been 1 year and 3 months since I had the prolia shot that adversely impacted my health. I have been hospitalized 3 times. My immune system is compromised. the pain, dizziness, itching and nausea made my life miserable. The side effects took a toll on me. Did it improve my bone density? I have had 4 stress fractures in my left foot and ankle...just from walking. For doctors who insist we take the Prolia shot, they should be required to take at least 3-4 shots before recommending it. All pharmaceutical salespeople should also be required to do the same. The FDA folks should also be required to do the same. Prolia would be taken off the market immediately.

I am so sorry for all of you who have to suffer because of corrupted systems.

I recently read on line about Vivian Goldschmidt's experience with osteoporosis drugs and have since stopped my Protos granules (strontium Ranelate) taken each night and adopted some of her recommendations. I did not not have side effects from the Protos but it can give you blood clots when taken for a long period of time and my doctors recommended Prolia IV's. Hence my research in this site. Vivian has written a book called 'Save our Bones'. I havent read the whole book but probably will at some stage. Look her up on google and you will find it very interesting reading. I did.

Thank you all! I am 52 post menop. Due to hysterectomy. I have osteoporosis and can't take fosomax due to side effects, gastro intestinal. Last year I tried reclast infusion and ended up in the ER with chest heaviness and trouble breathing. This subsided and was replaced with flu like symptoms for a few days. Now it is time for my next infusion which scares me. I chose reclast. Due for shot next week, but after reading this chat...no way. So, maybe it is back to reclast. If I were older, I would take my chances with nothing.
