Osteoporosis conference "very excited" about drug marketed by Novartis : (I like the MRK version better):
Studies may offer hope for osteoporosis victims
biz.yahoo.com
Excerpts:
"The National Osteoporosis Foundation said it was especially excited about work with calcitonin-salmon, a synthetic version of a natural hormone that is now available as a nasal spray. It is sold in the United States by Novartis (NOVZN.S) and elsewhere by Cortecs International (CRI.AX). "
..........
"The Foundation estimates that 10 million Americans have osteoporosis and 18 million more, mostly women, have low bone mass that puts them at risk. Experts say 200 million people worldwide suffer from the disease."

This is the nvtsy version (not nearly as informative):
