Abstract in brief

  • Strontium ranelate, a drug that boosts bone formation and reduces bone breakdown, was shown to lower the risk of vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.
  • In a three-year study with 1649 women, those taking the drug experienced fewer new vertebral fractures and had increases in bone mineral density at key sites like the spine and hip.
  • The treatment was effective in reducing fracture risk early on and throughout the study, without increasing serious side effects.
