Popis: |
Osteoporosis is a common non-communicable disease with enormous societal costs. Antiosteoporosis medications have been proven efficacious in reducing the refracture rate and mortality; moreover, we have now convincing evidence about the cost-effectiveness of antiosteoporotic medications. However, albeit preventable and treatable, osteoporosis has been somehow neglected by health authorities. Drugs approval has been unnecessarily lengthy, especially when compared with other non-communicable diseases. Herein, we discuss the issue of procrastinating drug approval in osteoporosis and future implications. |
