Pharmacology of bone mineral homeostasis

Abstract

This thesis integrates insights into the physiology of bone mineral homeostasis with detailed discussions of pharmacological treatments, providing an effective approach to manage and prevent metabolic bone disorders. The functions, uses and mechanisms of action of these pharmaceutical agents are explained, offering a clear understanding of how they contribute to bone health. Additionally, non-pharmacological strategies are mentioned for their supportive role. These strategies are crucial as they complement pharmacological treatments, and when used alongside them, together they can enhance overall bone strength and integrity.
