OBJECTIVES:  Fragility fractures caused by osteoporosis can be prevented by the prolonged intake of antiresorptive drugs. However, persistence to treatment is known to be suboptimal. Secondary fracture prevention through a Fracture Liaison Service (FLS) could help resolve this issue. This study’s objective was to assess patient-reported persistence to antiresorptive therapy after 12 months of follow-up in a FLS (Lucky Bone™). METHODS:  Patients (men and women)
