And right on the heels of my last post about the FDA warnings on Actos and Avandia and the inevitable lawsuits to come….here’s a new FDA warning about Chantix and increased cardiovascular risk.

Chantix lawsuit anyone?

Here’s my page on Chantix from a couple years ago.  Enjoy.

FDA Warning On Actos

Published on June 21, 2011 in Recent Medical News. 0 Comments Tags: , , , .

The FDA has come out with some new warnings about Actos and it’s association with bladder cancer.

You can read about it here.

It wasn’t too long ago that they came out with warnings about another drug in the same family, Avandia. That one has serious cardiovascular concerns.

I’m sure it won’t be too long before we start seeing a bunch of advertisements from lawyers wanting you to join lawsuits related to Avandia and Actos.

I know lots of doctors will fear being named in these lawsuits related to Avandia and Actos and will stop prescribing them.  It’ll make life a little more difficult for the drug reps who are tasked with convincing doctors to use these drugs.

Cheers!
