My mom's been dealing with low bone density and has a high risk of fractures due to osteoporosis. We've talked to two doctors; one mentioned trying Forteo and the other suggested Terifrac. I'm trying to figure out if there's any difference between these two injections, and which one might be the better choice. She's been on Terifrac for six months now, and I'm wondering if we should stick with it or switch to Forteo. Any advice?
