Highly Dangerous Side Effects Acknowledged by the FDA
In 2007, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released its most severe warnings by requiring Avandia manufacturer, GlaxoSmithKline, to include boxed warnings regarding congestive heart failure and myocardial ischemia on all Avandia packaging. The FDA has also acknowledged that other significant side effects can include:
- Heart disease
- Bone fractures and osteoporosis
- Eye damage
- Hepatotoxicity (liver damage)
The FDA is also currently reviewing a comprehensive study related to the cardiovascular safety of Avandia. Our firm will continue to watch for the FDA's findings and determination as to whether to fully recall Avandia.
