Current status of utilization of anti-osteoporotic medications among older adults and characteristics of prescription pattern among health professionals in Taiwan was not well-explored. Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the characteristics of anti-osteoporotic medication utilization and prescription pattern for older adults in Taiwan. Methods: This study was a secondary data analysis by using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database from 2001 to 2011. Older adults aged over 65 years old were included. Results: During 2001 and 2011, 1,169,457 older adults aged over 65 years were identified. Of them, 1,169,457 (52.0%) were female. For age distribution, there were 642,548 (54.9%) aged between 65 to 74 years, 415,512 (35.5%) between 75 to 84 years, 110,743 (9.5%) between 85 to 99 years and 744 (0.1%) were centenarian. Of these older adults, 38,523 (3.20%) had ever been prescribed of anti-osteoporotic medications. Among available anti-osteoporotic medications in Taiwan, the most frequently prescribed medication was Fosamax 29,634 (76.9%), followed by Evista 6,439 (16.7%), Forteo 2,628 (6.8%), Calcitonin 1,525 (4.0%), Bonviva 1,161 (3.0%), and Aclasta 532 (1.4%). Top 5 health professionals prescribed anti-osteoporotic medications were orthopedic doctors (61.5%), neurosurgeon (14.2%), rheumatology doctor (4.8%), rehabilitation doctor (4.2%), family physician (3.3%). Conclusion: The prescription of anti-osteoporotic medication is lower than the prevalence of osteoporosis. More attention should be paid for under treatment of osteoporosis in Taiwan." @default.
