Abstract
We are going to show the progress of 41 postmenopausal patients who have followed treatment for more than three years (86 months). Assessing several factors such as: development of the bone mineral density (BMD), adherence to therapeutic treatment, incidence of fractures and risk factors. Thirty five patients (85%) showed increases of the BMD in the spine with an average increase of 21%, and presented statistic changes (p < 0.005); 63% presented statistic changes in the hip but with not significant increases. Thirteen patients showed some fracture through fragility and 6 of them suffered more than one episode. By order of frequency: vertebral (spinal) fractures 8 (19.5%), radius 5 (12%), epiphysis of humerus 3 (7, 5%) and hip 2 (5%).
The most used treatment was alendronate (71%), followed by raloxifene (58%) and risedronate (54%). Using the Morisky test, the 48% of the patients were reliable.
We have found correlation between increases of the BMD and risk of fracture, not being found related to other risk factors.
