Bone fractures of the wrist

Supplements studied for bone fractures of the wrist.

Overview

Only Vitamin C is indexed for wrist bone fractures, with one low-rated study (DEX Score 32) for effect size and evidence and medium trust.

Taking 500 mg of vitamin C daily for about seven weeks after a broken bone does not appear to speed healing or improve symptoms compared with placebo. The indexed trial found no meaningful difference in recovery outcomes between vitamin C and control groups.

Evidence is limited to this single study. See the evidence review below for details.
