How does Cortizone affect bones?

Cortizone, a corticosteroid, can negatively impact bone health by decreasing calcium absorption in the intestines and increasing calcium excretion through the kidneys. This can lead to decreased bone mineral density, increasing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures over time. Additionally, prolonged use of cortizone can disrupt the balance of bone remodeling, further compromising bone strength. It's important for individuals on long-term corticosteroid therapy to be monitored for bone health and consider preventive measures.
