1236243 tn?1277680851 See this link for FDA issued warnings on Actos and Avandia http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/dm/pubs/medicines_ez/insert_J.aspx Kinda makes you wonder if it's time to leave the sinking ship.
Avatar m tn increased risk of heart attacks, and for having GSK funded doctors on the avandia approval board, etc... I'm not making definitive statements that avandia is bad (or good)... just explaining my reasons for being cautious until lots of other people (who need it more urgently... for diabetes, etc.) try it out.

356518 tn?1322263642 http://www.iguard.org/r/058JiD8999Cs * * * * WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? This recall for Ultram ER Extended-Release Tablets, 100 mg was issued at a warehouse and pharmacy level only. The FDA and the manufacturer have determined that any recalled product that may have been dispensed to patients does not pose a significant health risk. If you take Ultram ER Extended-Release Tablets, 100 mg, you should follow up with your physician if you are concerned or are experiencing side effects..
Avatar f tn t know if they still are but earlier the website was having technical issues and it was saying that ANY lot number you put in was not part of the recall. I followed the link on the main recall page that gives you a pdf of ALL lot numbers that are part of it just to be safe because we use Similac too. The can I've been using isn't listed but I'm still scared to use it.
572651 tn?1530999357 I got automated call yesterday from Prescription Solutions regarding refilling my copaxone. When I called back to refill, I asked them about the recall. Rep told me she and other reps just got email on it that morning and were told to refer all inquires to pharmacist. She didn't have any info other than if questioned to transfer calls. No pharmacist on duty so told me to call back today. Pharmacist today said they just got email yesterday regarding recall.

Avatar n tn She is gaining weight, has trouble breathing, and has been experiencing some chest pains lately (Dr. gave nitro). She is on avandia and I would like to know if this could be the cause of her recent decline in health?
566175 tn?1278430472 And even if you have peanut butter products that arent included in the recall, it still may be a good idea to throw out any thing that you're not sure about. Taking care of our September mommies and babies!!
390388 tn?1279636213 I hit the button to fast to post. On the FDA site they have a place where you can be notified of any recalls listed; "after the dog food recalls" I had put my email address in to be notified of any updated recalls and never got off the list. Its hard to believe all the things that get recalled and never brought to attention to the people. It's free for anyone to get on. Just thought I would pass it along.

Avatar m tn I use Actos, but for some reason my fingers typed Avandia. Our FDA went through the same review on Avandia recently, and reluctantly left it on the shelf; however, it is used only when patients are found refractory to other, similar drugs, I believe. FlGuy, although I was down to 185 pounds at one point during treatment, I’m currently the lankiest 6’ 0” 250 pounder you’ve ever seen :o). I’ve always led an active lifestyle, so I don’t fit the sedentary profile of typical DM II patients.
