Fortical

By Thomas Brunner Monday, April 06, 2009

Hi: I am using Fotical for bone pain. Have you used it?

I am getting a Neurostimulator from St. Jude Medical for my pain.

No, I haven't used fortical.  As I'm sure you know, it comes as a nasel spray and is a man-made form of a hormone that occurs naturally in the thyroid gland.  Fortical is usually used to treat osteoporosis in postmenopausal women, but is sometimes prescribed off-label for the treatment of nerve or bone pain.  Has it helped your bone pain?
