Physician members of the Thoracic Society and the Bone and Tooth Society were circularised about their views on the prophylaxis, screening and treatment for steroid osteoporosis. Bone physicians were more active than respiratory physicians in screening and prophylaxis and were more likely to favour bone densitometry in assessment and bisphosphonates in treatment. Further studies are required to establish the value of prophylactic agents in steroid osteoporosis but meanwhile respiratory physicians should appreciate the value of the relatively simple technique of bone densitometry in assessment and consider whether they should be more active in prophylaxis.
