Abstract:
Currently available pharmacological therapies for the treatment of osteoporosis pursue either an antiresorptive or osteoanabolic approach or have a dual effect. Antiresorptive therapies (bisphosphonates, denosumab, oestrogens and selective oestrogen receptor modulators (SERMs)) increase bone mass by inhibiting bone resorption. Osteoanabolic therapies (teriparatide and abaloparatide) increase bone mass by stimulating bone formation. Romosozumab is considered to have a dual effect. This review article presents the current pharmacological therapy options for osteoporosis treatment and their mechanisms of action. In addition, new treatment approaches are discussed, such as the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), extracellular vesicles (EVs), the blocking of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and individualised adjustment of the bisphosphonate dose.
