[Osteoporosis therapy - Update 2025, Part 2: Sequential osteoporosis therapy].

Abstract

Introduction: Osteoporosis is a chronic disease that requires lifelong therapy management that includes both non-drug and drug-based approaches. The availability of various drugs for osteoporosis therapy, characterized by different mechanisms of action, has significantly changed treatment strategies in recent years. Due to the potential treatment risks associated with long-term monotherapy and the fact that the osteoanabolic therapies used in patients with a high fracture risk are time-limited, sequential treatment strategies are increasingly being used today. The aim of this review article is to present the significance of different treatment sequences in osteoporosis drug therapy.
