Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To compare the efficacy and safety of alfacalcidol and strontium ranelate in the treatment of senile menopausal osteoporosis. METHODS:158 elderly menopausal patients with osteoporosis were randomly divided into control group (79 cases)and observation group(79 cases). All patients were orally given 1 Calcium carbonate D3 tablet,once a day. Based on it, control group was given 2 Alfacalcidol soft capsules,once a day. Observation group was additionally given 1 bag of Strontium ranelate dry suspension,orally before bedtime,once a day. The treatment course for both groups was 12 months. L2-4 and BMD of femoral neck,osteocalcin,TPINP and VAS and ADR before and after 6 and 12 months in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:Before treatment,there were significant differences in the BMD of L2-4 and femoral neck,osteocalcin,TPINP and VAS scores be-tween 2 groups(P>0.05). BMD of L2-4 and femoral neck in control group after 12 months and in observation group after 6 and 12 months were significantly higher than before,and it gradually increased be time in observation,observation group was higher than control group;TPINP and VAS scores in control group after 12 months and in observation group after 6 and 12 months were significantly lower than before,and it gradually decreased be time,observation group was lower than control group,the differenc-es were statistically significant(P<0.05);osteocalcin levels in 2 groups were significantly higher than before,and it gradually in-creased be time,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between 2 groups (P>0.05). There were no ADR during treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Based on the conventional treatment,the efficacy of alfacal-cidol and strontium ranelate is superior to alfacalcidol alone in the treatment of senile menopausal osteoporosis,with similar safety.
