Gemtide Injection is a man-made version of parathyroid hormone used to treat men and postmenopausal women who have severe osteoporosis with a high risk of fractures. It works by stimulating new bone formation, which improves bone density and decreases the risk of spinal fractures.
Gemtide contains Teriparatide is a synthetic form of the human parathyroid hormone, which helps to regulate calcium metabolism. It works by causing the body to build new bone and by increasing bone strength and bone mass density (BMD) (thickness) and reduce the risk of fractures by stimulating bone formation. It also increases the thickness of bone and rebuilds bones which reduces the risk of spine and hip fractures.

In Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a common condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break. Gemtide Injection helps treat osteoporosis in men as well as in women after menopause. It slows down the rate at which bone is broken down in your body. This maintains bone density and reduces your risk of breaking a bone. The injection is given by a doctor or nurse and should not be self-administered. You can help improve the strength of your bones by doing regular exercise (especially weight-bearing exercise), eating healthy foods containing calcium and Vitamin D and reducing your consumption of alcohol and tobacco. Supplements of calcium and Vitamin D3 are also effective.
