   Purpose, Prevention & Protection

   • I know calcitonin nasal spray helps slow bone loss in women who are more than five years past menopause.
   • I know it is usually used when other osteoporosis treatments are not suitable or cannot be tolerated.
   • I know studies have not proven that it prevents fractures, and long-term use may carry a possible cancer risk
   • I told my care team about low calcium, a calcitonin-salmon or serious fish allergy, nasal problems, cancer history
