Osteoporosis is a disease that weakens the skeletal system. It can affect men, women, and children but most commonly affects postmenopausal white women. Preventive steps and lifestyle choices can lower the risk of developing osteoporosis, but prevention is not always successful. In these cases, it is important for patients to begin an osteoporosis treatment plan, which can include medications. This article discusses the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, including the advantages and disadvantages of specific treatment options and the dosing options available for current osteoporosis medications.
