Abstract
It is generally considered that drugs with different pharmacological actions are prescribed when combination therapy is undertaken. Vitamin D insufficiency or deficiency is prevalent in osteopenic and osteoporotic postmenopausal women. Combination therapy of raloxifene with other agents including vitamin D has been reported and its effect on fracture prevention remains to be elucidated.
