Summary

This video from Douglas Lucas breaks down how osteoporosis medications should be used strategically, not just prescribed in isolation. He explains that drug sequencing matters, with evidence showing the best results come from starting with anabolic (bone-building) drugs before transitioning to other therapies. He also highlights how bone turnover markers (P1NP and CTX) can guide treatment decisions and track whether you’re building or losing bone.
