Re: Prolia

The only difference between Prolia and Xvega is the dose and dosing interval. Both are given subcutaneously. The Prolia dose is 60mg SC every 6 months for osteoporosis. The dose of Xvega for breast cancer in the bones is 120mg SC every month. I imagine the every six month dose has less side effects (jaw problems) than the 120mg dose every month.
