title: [Osteoporosis diagnosis and therapy according to the 2010 guidelines].
abstract: Osteoporotic fractures are a frequent cause of disability and loss of quality of life in old age. Maintaining muscle function and balance, a daily calcium intake of 1000 mg, sufficient vitamin D and prudent use of drugs associated with falls and osteoporosis are key components to fracture prevention. The German guideline recommends that a specific long-term osteoporosis medication be initiated in individuals with a 30% 10-year risk for hip fractures and vertebral fractures.
