Antiresorptive drugs (bisphosphonates, denosumab) are widely used for osteoporosis, effectively improving bone density and reducing fracture incidence.

Long-term use of these medications has been increasingly linked to atypical femoral fractures (AFFs).

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory condition that can affect bone health.
