Özet

BACKGROUND: Strontium ranelate offers significant clinical terms of efficacy, tolerability, and ease of administration in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis. However, there are some data revealing an association between strontium ranelate treatment and increased incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE), suggesting possible adverse prothrombotic effects of the drug.
