Abstrakt: The aim of this article is to justify a need for evaluation of the absolute risk of fractures, to compare efficacy of antiresorptive therapies as indicated by large clinical trials, and to review currently available methods to assess efficacy of therapies in individual patients. It is emphasized that adherence to therapies is influenced not only by the individual bone efficacy and safety of the drug but also by beneficial impacts of the treatment on tissues other than bone.
