Abstract

Corticosteroids are the principal cause of secondary osteoporosis due to drug treatment. Doses of more than 5 mg daily and periods of treatment lasting more than 3 months increase the risk of osteoporosis and fragility fractures. It is therefore essential to be aware of measures to reduce the risk of osteoporosis in our patients.

Key words:
corticosteroids
osteoporosis
bisphosphonates
Resumen

La primera causa de osteoporosis secundaria a fármacos son los glucocorticoides. Dosis diarias superiores a 5 mg o dosificación durante más de 3 meses incrementan la osteoporosis y las fracturas por fragilidad. Resulta crucial conocer las medidas para minimizar la osteoporosis en nuestros enfermos.

Palabras clave:
corticosteroides
osteoporosis
bifosfonatos
