Actos

San Antonio Actos Drug Injury Attorneys

Actos is one of the best-selling prescription drugs in the United States. Patients use Actos to help manage diabetes. But an ongoing study by the Food and Drug Administration has revealed problems with Actos - the prescription drug may increase the risk of bladder cancer.

Doctors Advised Not to Prescribe Actos

Government health agencies in Europe have advised - in some cases, forced - doctors and other health care providers not to prescribe the drug pioglitazone, which is marketed as Actos in the U.S. As one of the best-selling prescription drugs in the nation, Actos is used by millions to treat type 2 diabetes, helping to reduce blood sugar.

Unfortunately, Actos may cause serious complications, including:

  • Bladder cancer. Patients who have taken Actos for longer than one year or in high doses may find themselves with an increased risk of developing bladder cancer - as high as 40 percent, according to the FDA.

The millions of patients who have taken Actos may experience the relatively mild side effects of headaches and sinus infections; others may find themselves with bladder cancer.
