Sadly, millions of type 2 diabetes patients take Actos (pioglitazone) treatments without realizing that they could be putting their lives at risk – and all because the maker of Actos has failed to appropriately test their product or warn consumers about its risks.
So, what are the big risks associated with taking Actos (pioglitazone) treatments? According to a five-year interim analysis of a ten-year study, patients exposed to a high cumulative dose of pioglitazone are at very real risk of developing bladder cancer. This risk is so meaningful, in fact, that several European countries have taken aggressive steps to limit the prescription of Actos to type 2 diabetes patients.
