Prolia is a prescription medication used to treat osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and men at high risk of fractures. It is also used to increase bone mass in men with prostate cancer and in women with breast cancer who are receiving certain treatments that increase their risk for fractures. Prolia works by inhibiting the action of a protein involved in bone breakdown, helping to strengthen bones.

How is this medication used?

Prolia is administered as a subcutaneous injection by a healthcare provider once every six months. It is important to continue receiving your injections as scheduled, even if you feel well. Patients should also take calcium and vitamin D supplements as advised by their healthcare provider to ensure the best possible effect of the treatment.

What are the possible side effects?

Common side effects of Prolia include back pain, pain in your arms and legs, high cholesterol levels, muscle pain, and bladder infection. Some serious side effects include low blood calcium levels, serious infections, skin problems such as rashes and eczema, and jaw bone problems. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms of low blood calcium such as spasms, twitches, or cramps in their muscles, or changes in the heartbeat.

What are the potential interactions?

Prolia may interact with other medications, so it is important to tell your healthcare provider about all the medications you are taking, including prescription, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Particularly, using Prolia with other treatments that affect bone turnover, such as other osteoporosis medications, may increase the risk for side effects. Your doctor will review your medications to ensure that Prolia is safe for you to use.
