The influence of intermittent parathyroid hormone (PTH(1-34)) administration on callus formation and mechanical strength of tibial fractures in rats was investigated after 20 and 40 days of healing. A dose of 60 microg of PTH(1-34)/kg/day and 200 microg of PTH(1-34)/kg/day, respectively, was adminis…
