Actos Side Effects May Affect Millions Of Patients

Recent studies have shown that the medication known as Actos is not without serious side effects

. This drug has quickly gained popularity after it replaced Avandia, a similar product that lead to severe heart conditions. This fact makes experts fear that millions of patients could be possibly affected by the drug's side effects. Some countries even banned the distribution of the product on their territory. In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration has issued a warning about the dangerous effects the drug may have on the body of patients.

The majority of patients don't even know that the medication is the cause of their health problems. The side effects of this product range from simple muscle pain, sinus infection, headaches or sore throat to more serious complications that could lead to liver damage, dangerous heart conditions or bladder cancer.

Bladder cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in the United States. With about 70,000 cases diagnosed only in 2010, bladder cancer represents a huge concern for Actos users. If you have taken this drug and have experienced pain while urinating, lower back pain, need to urinate frequently or blood in urine, you should consult a doctor immediately. Treatment options range from chemotherapy and immunotherapy to surgery. In order to determine the right treatment, urine, blood tests and physical examinations have to be performed. The stage in which the disease is detected, as well as the type of bladder cancer are also very important in this process.

Patients who have suffered from the severe side effects of Actos use may be entitled to receive compensation to cover all the pain they have experienced and all medical care expenses. Choosing an experienced lawyer specialized in this field of law will make a huge difference in the fight against the drug company. Drug injury lawsuits are hard to handle and an Actos lawsuit is no different. Things like medical studies, medical records investigation as well as legal experienced are all very important in such cases. Every case is different and the result may vary by significant amounts, only a competent legal defender will be able to achieve the best results.
