Teriparatide (PTH 1-34) record · updated 9h ago
Teriparatide, a synthetic form of parathyroid hormone (PTH 1-34), is primarily used in the treatment of osteoporosis. It acts as an anabolic agent, stimulating bone formation through its mechanism of action, which involves binding to specific PTH receptors on osteoblasts, leading to increased osteoblast proliferation and activity. This results in enhanced bone mineral density and strength, making it particularly beneficial for postmenopausal women at high risk of fractures.
How it works: PTH1 receptor agonist

What people are saying
anecdotal · not evidenceUnverified first-hand accounts from public forums. These are not studies: nobody checked what was taken, whether it was what the label said, or what else was going on. They count for nothing in the evidence grade above and are shown because a reader searching Teriparatide (PTH 1-34) will meet them anyway, and meeting them next to a graded evidence base is better than meeting them alone.
