A nasal spray is an effective way to treat osteoporosis—especially for patients who have problems using other types of medications. There are several benefits to using a nasal spray to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis, including:
The medicine from a nasal spray enters the bloodstream rapidly. That's because the tiny blood vessels lining the nasal passages quickly absorb the fine mist of medication that is sprayed in the nostril. Then the medication goes right into the bloodstream, where it works to stop bone loss and helps bones become stronger. Other medications that have to be swallowed, such as tablets and pills, must first be absorbed by the digestive system.
The medicine from a nasal spray does not enter the stomach. MIACALCIN Nasal Spray is unlikely to cause unpleasant side effects such as discomfort of the stomach or esophagus, or other problems in the digestive system.
Using MIACALCIN Nasal Spray is easy and convenient because it can be used before, during, and after meals, and with other medications. There's no need to wait for long periods before eating, drinking, or taking other medications. Other treatments may have limits on when a patient can eat, drink, and take other medications. These strict rules may be difficult for some people to follow.
