I m a 71yrold female with osteopenia (-1 T score?) I ve been taking Evista for bone density for about 10 years. My dr. thought there might be a time limit on how long to take this drug, but she didn t know where she heard that & I can t find the answer. Any suggestions?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Since Evista is a relatively new medicine,it's not clear yet how long you should take Evista to get the most risk reduction benefits.
It is recommended for women to take Evista for 5 years.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
