Description
Young-Ho Cho, Seong-Eun Byun, and Hwan-Hee Lee ask whether bone drugs still need added calcium and vitamin D to work well. Their 2025 study looks back at more than three hundred patients treated with denosumab for weak bones. Each patient got at least four doses over two years. Some took the added nutrients and some did not. Bone density was checked each year at the spine, hip, and hip neck.
Bone density gains did not differ between the two groups at one year or at two. Past bone drugs and past breaks also did not change the gains. The same held for patients new to treatment. The authors say the drug worked alike with or without the adds.
