Good Morning,

My oncologist has suggested starting on Denosumab (with a calcium/Vitamin D) to help maintain bone strength. She has pointed out it is not a chemotherapy drug = think it is also used in treatment of .osteoporosis. Have had to have a dental check-up. Anyone else had this course of treatment?

Thanks.

Hi Maninbath

I'm not a member of this forum but noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.

I'm sure some of the forum members will be along soon to share their experiences with Denosumab with you.

Hello

I have been prescribed Denusab too. I had to have 5 teeth removed in order for me to receive the treatment. It's very important to have regular dental checkups.

I hope you are doing well x

Yes, Ihave had 2 cycles now with no side effects. I have secondary cancer in my spinal cord. I also take Letrozole and Abermycyclib along with and also calcium tabs.

I know Denisomab can result in unwanted side effects but so far so good. I also had the dental x Ray.
