Hi Priya, good to hear from you!  I sure hope that we can find out about the side effects of this new drug as soon as the research is done.  Unfortunately, Amgen (the manufacturer) is not releasing this info yet and I suspect this new venture into space will be used to help get it approved by the FDA if the results are good in the group of mice that were given the shot.

Since bone loss from skeletal disuse is a major problem, we need to find a solution to this since those with medical restrictions and physical limitations, can't get the normal weight bearing exercise they need for their bones.

It's unfortunate that we sometimes forget our friends who are physical limited and they need help with this, so I hope they can find a solution for those who can't do all the exercises most of us can.  We should never take our health for granted.

I'll keep my eyes open for any info on the side effects and results, and when they are available post them back here.

Thanks again for being such a loyal and inteligent reader and member!

Take Care friend...
