Avandia side effect heart failure and death

Previously I reported that Avandia is responsible for liver failure and deaths. Now come even more bad news about the drug that seniors with diabetes are more likely to develop heart failure and die.

It is already known that Avandia hinders bone formation. Due to concerns about its safety Avandia has a black box warning but the FDA has refused to recall Avandia.

Public Citizen has been pleading with FDA to ban Avandia.
