Spanish term or phrase: durante más de 16 semanas antes de producirse la lesión
Need to check I am reading this correctly.

Sin embargo, si no ha tomado ciertos medicamentos para tratar la osteoporosis durante más de 16 semanas antes de producirse la lesión, se le pedirá que no comience a tomarlos durante las primeras 16 semanas después de la lesión y que evite tomar otros ciertos medicamentos contra la osteoporosis durante el curso del estudio.

Explanation:
I would say:
However, if he/she has not taken certain osteoporosis medications for more than 16 weeks before the injury occurred, he/she will be asked not to start taking them for the first 16 weeks following the injury and to avoid taking certain other osteoporosis medications throughout the course of the study.

And since it seems to be an ICF, it would be "you" instead of "he/she"
