If you’ve watched a golf tournament recently, you’ve probably seen dozens of advertisements from wealth managers and heard about the theory that underpins their profession: risk management. While risk management is important in finance, it’s no less important in other professions, such as the law and medicine, and even in your daily life.
Today, thousands of Americans suffer from Type 2 diabetes. Partnering with their doctor, these patients work to manage the risks associated with this life-changing and potentially life-threatening health condition. For years, doctors have used one medication in particular, Actos (pioglitazone), to manage the health risks of Type 2 diabetes. Sadly, however, recent medical research has shown that Actos is not without its own risks. Specifically, health researchers have concluded that the probability of developing bladder cancer increases by an astonishing 40 percent among long-term Actos patients.
What steps should you consider when determining how to effectively manage the risks associated with Actos (pioglitazone)? If you develop bladder cancer as a result of your Actos prescription, you may consider exploring your legal options against the maker of this potentially harmful medication. Your legal rights are important and worth protecting. To learn more, talk to the attorneys and professionals at Fears Nachawati today.
