A method for restoration of the circadian rhythm of parathyroid hormone (PTH) serum levels in a subject having osteoporosis, so as to restore a circadian rhythm of PTH levels which is similar to that existing in normal subjects is disclosed by administering a single daily dose of a composition consisting essentially of an effective amount of phosphate in the evening or at night, whereby the composition causes a circadian rhythm of PTH levels which peaks during the night, whereby the circadian rhythm of PTH levels is restored to that which is similar to that existing in normal subjects, thereby treating osteoporosis.

Treatment of conditions associated with impairment in the level of the parathyroid hormone

A method of treating osteoporosis is disclosed by administering orally a single daily dosage of phosphate in the evening in an amount, e.g., about 10 mg/kg body weight or less which is effective to raise serum parathyroid hormone levels of the subject being treated.
