User Reviews for Prolia subcutaneous

I have written a review already, I forgot to mention , I developed a very high fever plus what I already wrote.I do not care about the rebound effect.WIll not take this poison.

I was diagnosed with Medicine Induced Osteonecrosis of the Jaw after taking Prolia for 2 years. I lost my lower jaw, all of my lower teeth and my fibula which was used to construct a new jaw. It has been 7 months since my surgery. I still have no feeling in my chin area and I continue to have swelling in my jaw, neck and leg. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS DRUG!

I received prolia March 8 2024.This is April 1 and still sick. Day after the shot woke up with pain in the muscles and bones. Next day my throat itching, then started a dry cough then shortness of breath, then a high fever.When I called my pcp he said just caught a " bug" .Then a full bronchitis with pink tinged phlegm. Now with diarrhea and fatigue.I know my allergies.I have numerous ones.React to just about any medications.Covid vaccine I ended in the hospital. All my allergies are vascular and respiratory responses. I read up on prolia before taking it.I am in the health field and had second thoughts but went head. I truly regretted my decision My pcp denies they are prolia reactions.I KNOW MY BODY.No one tells me otherwise WiLL NOT TAKE THIS BLOODY MEDICINE AGAIN. Read More Read Less

Prolia - I am in severe pain since injections 2 yrs ago. Stiffness in joints at beginning then pain in groin legs & hips that doesn't go away with painkillers.

I was prescribed Prolia in Dec., 2023. I've not felt myself since then. Continued muscle pain particularly at injection site with SEVERE muscle and joint pain in shoulder, neck, hips, legs, just about all over. I'm using a heating pad for these symptoms that are keeping me awake at night. I recognize I am at risk of fracture due to loss of bone density, even after taking Tymlos and Fosomax for a number of years and continuing loss of bone density. I will not continue with Prolia. I too recognize these aches and pains may continue the entire time while on Prolia. I'll give it some time. Taking this medication has really made me feel aged!! Read More Read Less

Prolia made 3 molars shatter. My teeth felt like rubber. After being off of Prolia for about 8 months my teeth felt back to their usual strong bones.eanwhile my smile, facial shape , comfort and oral health has been compromised. I am sorry I ever took this drug.

I deal only in the facts. I have no intention of scaring anyone. I had five doses of PROLIA and this gave me back-to-back UTIs, Cellulitis, pelvic pain and pain (similar to muscle spasms) at the top of my legs when resting. I have stopped taking PROLIA. All of these adverse effects have gone away. These are the facts. Make of them what you will.

I have taken polia 3 time. Every 6 months. I had a dexi scan before starting and after 3 shots. The osteoporosis is worse. I am 67 years old.

Like most people, I was not advised that once you start Prolia, you can't discontinue easily. You have to go on a complex relay protocol involving an alternative antiresorptive and monitoring of bone turnover (not density - turnover!) We are not warned about this, although it's mentioned in the manufacturer's consumer materials, AND discussed extensively in clinical studies worldwide. The consequences of failing to go on a relay protocol (which is NOT always available) is that you go into "Rebound", that is, accelerated bone turnover which causes catastrophic bone loss AND an increased risk of multiple spontaneous vertebral fractures. This shocking aftereffect of Prolia was not discussed with me and when I discontinued (there are MANY reasons one might discontinue, or miss a shot; I won't get into them here) I did indeed suffer major bone loss AND five spontaneous vertebral fractures, all in one day. That we are not warned that we can get TRAPPED on this drug is the manufacturer's dirty little secret, which it semi-hides from users. There is SO much to know about denosumab - that it doesn't "build" or "strengthen" bone (it only builds density, which comprises undisposed of dead bone cells); that it does NOT "prevent fractures" (merely reduces fracture occurrence in clinical studies); that it cannot be safely discontinued without that complex relay protocol; that it has significant side effects over long term use. There is a Facebook group with more than 11,000 members that has significant science-based information which is worthwhile joining for a summary of the main issues with this appalling drug (Denosumab Side Effects/effets secondaires and support it's called). If your doctor hasn't told you about the Rebound Effect, find one who has, before you even CONSIDER treatment with this drug. He might know how to get you onto the drug but if he doesn't know how to get you OFF of it again, well, you need a new doctor.Read More Read Less

I had a myriad of horrible side effects. FOR EVERYONE COMMENTING: you cannot just stop this drug. When you do you suffer catastrophic bone loss which can result in Multiple Spontaneous Vertebrae Fractures. You MUST take a bisphosphonate to stop this from happening. Even the drug manufacturer warns of this but many doctors are not informing patients. Join the Prolia Denosumab) Side Effects support Facebook page for more information and help.

I just got my 4th Prolia injection and have had absolutely no issues. I am 75 years old and my osteoporosis is pretty bad. I obsessed for months before starting because I have a mouth full of implants and bone grafts in my mouth. I lost my upper teeth when I was 18 and am holding on to my lower implants for dear life. My dentist has told me if I lose the implants, I don’t have enough bone for lower dentures. So I read all the reviews and talked with my dentist. He said I was fine with taking Prolia since my dental hygiene is something I take very seriously. I will be getting my first Dexascan in February since starting Prolia. I am so looking forward to either stabilizing my scores or even better, improving them!Read More Read Less

A nightmare for me getting the Prolia injection, pain throughout my body like I've never had before. Now after 4 months, have all these varicose veins appearing on my buttocks and quite painful when I'm sitting. Worse decision of my life being talked into having Prolia injection.

I had a serious traumatic brain injury in the past and thankfully after rehabilitation I walked and lived independently. Four months after taking the Prolia injection, it was like all of a sudden the connections between my brain and my legs were lost. I had a problem with standing from the chair, initiating walking and lost my ability to walk and live independently. My advise is to stay away from Prolia if you had a serious traumatic brain injury in the past because in my opinion it negatively affects the human nervous systrem.Read More Read Less

Has anyone experienced high blood pressure using prolia? I have had second injection and have had high pressure. Concerned ??

Never ever again. This drug made me feel like I was poisoned.

Two months after my second injection I experienced joint weakness and pain in hips, knees, ankles, and it got progressively worse until I was using a cane and unable to live my normal life. The pain was worse in my right hip and I was scheduled for total hip replacement surgery. My rheumatologist and orthopedist said it was unrelated to the Prolia. However, as it got closer to when I was due for my next injection and the Prolia was getting out of my system, I got better. Soon I wasn’t using the cane, had reduction in pain and was walking normally. I do have osteoarthritis in my hips, but the pain is controlled on Meloxicam and my surgery has been cancelled. Luckily I had to wait for 6 weeks for the surgery, or I would have had it done when I really didn’t need it yet. It is frustrating to tell your doctors what happened to you and be told it isn’t valid. I know my experience with Prolia was a negative one. Read More Read Less

I had a fall in 2011 and broke my elbow. I believe that was the beginning of osteoporosis when I was 57. Shortly after, I asked my gynecologist to have a bone density test done, but she said it is unnecessary, and because insurance will not approve, I would be paying for it myself. 3 years later, I was diagnosed with fully blown osteoporosis by the same doctor!!! I was scared and did not know what to do. She suggested Prolia as one of the best treatment options for me. I checked and debated pros and cons, and started taking the injection of 60 mg twice a year. At first, I had jaw pain after the shot, but as it came to year 5 of using the drug, I have developed severe jaw pain, lost several teeth and it continues to destroy my oral health... In addition, I have hip, back and knee pain! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS TREATMENT based on my own experience! Read More Read Less

Had first shot in October of 2022 and second in April of 2023. Not evaluated yet as bone scan not due until March of 2024. Inherited osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. Had basically no untoward subjective symptoms. Doctors said patients had no bad side effects when I mentioned negative comments I had readl. So I stupidly took the shot fearing if I broke a hip they would just say, "You should have taken the Prolia." Have pain in left ankle and tibia plus lower lumbar area....never had this before. Plus "tired" isn't an adequate word to describe how I feel. Obviously old age is a facet here, but I feel really half dead half of the time. I am due for shot #3 in October. I will get it as the problems associated with quitting appear to be almost worse. I wish I had been born into a better gene pool!Read More Read Less

Before I had Prolia injection back pain was not that bad, after the injection the pain was unbearable as well as constant headaches, jaw pain, muscle pain, my immune system went down, vitamin D and kidney function went down too. Also developed skin rash. I DO NOT recommend Prolia injection not even to my worst enemy, Prolia is poison to the human body.

This drug gave me cancer. A disaster. I am going to die. The number one reason why women dropped out of the clinical test was they got cancer. It is poison. Shame on the fda for keeping it on the market.
