Raloxifene
Uses
Raloforce is used in the treatment of post menopausal osteoporosis.
How it Works
Raloforce works by mimicking the natural effects of oestrogen. The female hormone oestrogen helps to protect a woman against bone loss. When the level of oestrogen falls after the menopause, a woman can rapidly lose bone mass, making her at higher risk of developing osteoporosis. Raloforce works by gradually reversing the excessive breakdown of bone that happens at menopause and makes bones stronger.
