The therapeutic effect of fluoride alone or fluoride followed by calcium and vitamin D administration on the osteoporosis induced by immobilization of the rat tail vertebrae was investigated. Tail immobilization was carried out by musclectomy and tendectomy. After 60 days of immobilization, the vertebrae were examined for bone mass, breaking strength, ash percentage and Ca, P and F content. NaF or Ca and vitamin D as separate treatments improved the osteoporosis induced by immobilization. The effects of NaF treatment were more pronounced than those of Ca and vitamin D. NaF and NaF followed by Ca and vitamin D produced a similar degree of improvement in breaking strength. The fact that fluoride and calcium and vitamin D were administered separately and sequentially may explain the absence of a synergistic effect.
