Actos Injury Claim
Actos Side-Effect Claim - Bladder Cancer Lawsuit
Actos first gained traction in 1999 when the FDA approved this prescription medication to treat patients with diabetes. Also known as pioglitazone, Actos is primarily used to regulate blood sugar levels in people suffering from type 2 diabetes. In late 2010, the FDA took notice of an increase in complaints from Actos users and utlimately determined that a link existed between Actos and gall bladder cancer. There is reportedly an increased risk of bladder cancer for users that have been on higher doses of Actos or for an extended period of time. Actos continues to be sold throughout the country despite the link to cancer.
If you are currently using Actos and experience any of the following symptoms, consult with your physician immediately and then discuss whether you have an Actos bladder cancer lawsuit against Takeda:
- Frequent changes in urine color
- Blood in urine
- Shooting pain when urinating
- Urinary tract infection (UTI)
- Fluid retention
- Liver disorders
The risk of bladder cancer appears to be greater in men than women. If you experience any of these symptoms, make sure to keep any used or unused bottles of Actos that you may have in your possession. You may have an Actos injury claim against the manufacturer.
