Denaxa 60mg Injection contains Denosumab, a monoclonal antibody used primarily in the treatment of bone-related conditions. Denosumab works by inhibiting a protein involved in bone resorption, making it useful in conditions where bone density needs to be preserved or enhanced.
To be sure the prescription is safe for you, let your doctor know about all the medications you take. Before using, women who are pregnant or nursing should speak with their doctor.
