Terifrac Injection (Teriparatide)
Terifrac Injection contains Teriparatide, a recombinant form of parathyroid hormone used in the treatment of severe osteoporosis. It helps stimulate new bone formation, increase bone mineral density, and reduce the risk of fractures in patients at high fracture risk.
Terifrac Injection is commonly prescribed for postmenopausal women, men with osteoporosis, and patients with steroid-induced osteoporosis, strictly under specialist supervision.
Uses of Terifrac Injection
Terifrac Injection is used for:
Treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis
Osteoporosis in men at high fracture risk
Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis
Patients with severe bone loss or previous fractures
How Terifrac Injection Works
Terifrac works by stimulating bone-forming cells (osteoblasts). Unlike other osteoporosis medicines that slow bone loss, Terifrac actively promotes new bone formation, making bones stronger and reducing fracture risk.
