[Osteoporosis therapy, current status].
Treatment of osteoporosis includes various possibilities with drugs. Furthermore, approaches with physiotherapy and adequate diet are also important. As to drugs substances like calcium, estrogens, bisphosphonates, calcitonin, fluoride and vitamin D have to be mentioned. Anabolic steroids have some beneficial effects on bone, but there are problems with side effects. Strontium and ibriflavone show interesting potentials, but they need to be studied in more detail.
