Medication for bone growth

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi,

Anyone taken a medication called Teriparatide (daily injections) for bone growth in cases on non union in femur fractures caused by intake of Bisphosphonates? 

I had surgery 2 months back- rod and screws -and there is a large gap which shows up clearly on X-rays so doctors are suggesting I take these daily injections.
