Murfreesboro OSTEOPOROSIS AND HIP FRACTURE

DRUGS AND Murfreesboro OSTEOPOROTIC HIP FRACTURE

Certain pharmaceutical products are reported to change bone structure and influence the risk of fragility hip fractures. These drugs were highly linked to these fractures in this review of 38 studies on the subject: antidepressants, antiparkinsonian drugs, antipsychotic drugs, anxiolytic drugs, H2 antagonists, benzodiazepines, proton pump inhibitors, and thyroid hormone. One drug intervention was linked to a reduced risk of hip fracture: hormone replacement therapy with estrogen.

Most Chiropractic Clinic is all about sharing information and would add that new research points to supplementation as a help.
Murfreesboro CHIROPRACTIC SUGGESTED NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS AND HIP FRACTURE REDUCTION
As hip fracture is a serious complication of osteoporosis, a non-drug approach like multivitamin use and its effect on hip fracture risk is most interesting. A meta-analysis found 8 studies on hip fracture risk and multivitamin use. 80,148 subjects – 4237 of them had a fragility hip fracture – were reviewed. The average age was 69 years. 21% were male. Combined multivitamin supplements are already very popular and widely used. Their use was observed to be significantly protective against osteoporosis-related hip fracture.
