Abstract

Objective

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of strontium ranelate on insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), leptin and osteocalcin levels in osteoporotic post-menopausal women.

Study design

Thirty-three women were given 2 g/day strontium ranelate for 6 months. Serum IGF-1, leptin and osteocalcin levels were measured before and after the treatment.

Results

Strontium ranelate treatment increased IGF-1 levels significantly (P = 0.02). Leptin and osteocalcin levels did not change significantly before and after the treatment. There was no correlation between basal and 6-months treatment levels of IGF-1 and leptin.

Conclusion

Strontium ranelate increases serum IGF-1 levels in osteoporotic post-menopausal women.
