Abstract
This first clinical practice guideline (CPG) on osteoporosis prevention and management in the Philippines is the output of a shared undertaking by a multidisciplinary CPG development team spearheaded by the Osteoporosis Society of the Philippines Foundation, Inc. and joined by the Philippine Academy of Family Physicians; the Philippine College of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism; the Philippine Orthopedic Association; the Philippine Obstetrics and Gynecological Society and the Philippine Rheumatology Association. This guideline seeks to augment and update the "Consensus statements on osteoporosis diagnosis, prevention and management in the Philippines," initially published in 2011, incorporating evidence-based practices developed in the last decade.
