Sclerostin Inhibitors

Sclerostin inhibitors are medications designed to help strengthen bones by blocking a natural protein called sclerostin, which normally limits bone formation. By inhibiting sclerostin, these drugs promote increased activity of bone-building cells, leading to improved bone density. They are often used to treat conditions like osteoporosis, especially in people at high risk of fractures. Sclerostin inhibitors offer a targeted approach to enhance bone strength and reduce fracture risk, providing an alternative to traditional therapies.
