About Teritide Injection 1's

Teritide Injection 1's belongs to the class of medication called 'anabolic (promoting bone formation) agent' indicated for prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in adults and helps to strengthen the bone. This medicine also helps to reduce the risk of spine and hip fractures. Osteoporosis is a medical condition in which bone becomes thin or weak. The chance of developing osteoporosis increases with age, after menopause or by taking corticosteroid medications (such as prednisone) for a long period. If proper treatment is not provided then it can even result in broken bones.

Teritide Injection 1's contains Teriparatide a synthetic form of the human parathyroid hormone, which helps to regulate calcium metabolism. Teritide Injection 1's works by causing the body to build new bone by increasing bone strength and bone mass density (BMD) (thickness) and reduce the risk of fractures by stimulating bone formation. It also increases the thickness of bone and rebuilds bones which reduces the risk of spine and hip fractures.

Teritide Injection 1's will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. In some cases, Teritide Injection 1's can cause side effects like nausea, vomiting,  joint pain, leg cramps, swelling/redness at the injection site, upset stomach, diarrhea, constipation, runny nose, cough, and throat irritation. Most of these side effects of Teritide Injection 1's do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

To treat your condition effectually, continue taking Teritide Injection 1's for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Consult your doctor before taking Teritide Injection 1's if you are pregnant or breastfeeding; your doctor will prescribe you Teritide Injection 1's only if the benefits outweigh the risks. Teritide Injection 1's is not recommended for children below 18 years of age.  Tell your doctor that you are taking Teritide Injection 1's before you have any lab test as this medicine could interfere with the results. Teritide Injection 1's may cause dizziness, lightheadedness, and fainting when you get up too quickly from a lying position. To avoid this problem, get out of bed slowly, resting your feet on the floor for a few minutes before standing up. Inform your doctor about your health condition and medications before taking Teritide Injection 1's to rule out any side effects. Teritide Injection 1's is a cold chain medicine, and so it has to be stored in the refrigerator between 2-8 degrees Celsius else its efficiency might be lost. Do not store in the freezer or the fridge.

Uses of Teritide Injection 1's

Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal osteoporosis

Medicinal Benefits

Teritide Injection 1's is a synthetic form of a natural human hormone called parathyroid hormone (PTH) that is prescribed to prevent and treat osteoporosis in persons with weak bones. It prevents the loss of bones that happens after menopause and helps to rebuild bones. Teritide Injection 1's contains Teriparatide which works by causing the body to build new bone and by increasing bone strength and bone mass density (BMD) (thickness) and reduce the risk of fractures by stimulating bone formation. It also increases the thickness of bone and rebuilds bones which reduces the risk of spine and hip fractures. Teritide Injection 1's is also indicated for the treatment of increasing bone mass in people with osteoporosis, glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis.

Directions for Use

Teritide Injection 1's will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer.

It is important that your doctor check your progress regularly to make sure that Teritide Injection 1's is working properly. Blood and urine tests may be needed to check for unwanted effects. Teritide Injection 1's can increase the amount of calcium in your blood or urine.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • A person should consume calcium and vitamin D in their diet as it helps make stronger bones and avoid everyday osteoporosis dangers.
  • A post-menopausal woman should limit salt intake as it can pose a high risk of losing more bone minerals than other women of the same age.
  • Do regular exercise like weight-bearing exercises which are important for maintaining bone health.
  • Calcium is important for making bones strong. Vitamin D is equally important, which helps to ensure the absorption and retention of calcium in bones, so take food high in calcium and vitamins.

Special Advise

  • Certain diagnostic test like blood test measures the level of calcitonin in your blood and bone density scan is used to check bone mineral density (BMD).
  • Teritide Injection 1's should not be prescribed for patients at increased baseline risk of osteosarcoma (bone cancer).
  • Clinical monitoring of urine tests or serum electrolyte concentrations is recommended.
  • Do not take Teritide Injection 1's for longer durations unless prescribed by your doctor.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Osteoporosis: It is a medical condition that causes thinning and weakening of the bones. The chance of developing osteoporosis increases with age, after menopause or by taking corticosteroid medications (such as prednisone) for a long period. If proper treatment is not provided then it can even result in broken bones. In starting days, osteoporosis does not show any symptoms.  However, if proper treatment is not provided then it can even lead to broken bones. In Osteoporosis, bones can break at any time even during daily activities like lifting or even from minor activities. Fractures usually occur at the hip, spine or wrist which can even lead to stooped posture (‘dowager’s hump’) and loss of movement.
