When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

Romosozumab is contraindicated in patients with hypocalcemia. Preexisting hypocalcemia must be corrected prior to initiating therapy. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of hypocalcemia and adequately supplement them with calcium and vitamin D while on treatment. Patients with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] 15 to 29 mL/min/1.73 m2) or receiving dialysis are at greater risk of developing hypocalcemia and should be monitored closely. Instruct patients with severe renal impairment, including those receiving dialysis, about the symptoms of hypocalcemia and the importance of maintaining calcium levels with adequate calcium and vitamin D supplementation.
