Bone Health · Ontario
Forteo (teriparatide) and Evenity (romosozumab) are bone-building ("anabolic") medications used for severe osteoporosis or very high fracture risk. Doctors On Site connects Ontario patients with licensed physicians who assess eligibility and, where clinically appropriate, prescribe or coordinate specialist care.
Book a Physician Assessment →Unlike medications that mainly slow bone breakdown, anabolic therapies help build new bone. Teriparatide (Forteo) is a daily injection, and romosozumab (Evenity) is a monthly injection; both are generally used for a defined period in patients with severe osteoporosis or very high fracture risk, often followed by another medication to maintain the gains. Because of how they are used and funded, treatment is carefully assessed and usually coordinated with specialist input. They are available in Ontario by prescription.
Doctors On Site physicians commonly assess patients seen through our programs, including:
Teriparatide stimulates the formation of new bone, while romosozumab both increases bone formation and reduces bone breakdown. Both are used for a limited time to build bone density and reduce fracture risk, typically followed by a maintenance medication. A physician assesses suitability, reviews your history, and coordinates specialist care and follow-up where needed.
