What does the administration of Parathyroid hormone 1-34 recommend for?
Very low-risk patients
Patients with moderate risk of fractures
Very high-risk patients
All patients as preventive treatment
The correct answer is: Very high-risk patients
The administration of Parathyroid hormone 1-34 is recommended for very high-risk patients. This hormone is used in the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women who are at high risk of fractures and have failed other osteoporosis therapies. It is typically not recommended for very low-risk patients, patients with moderate risk of fractures, or all patients as preventive treatment.
