Looks as if there no recall of Avandia despite its serious side effects. GlaxoSmithKline, like any other drug company, continues to deny that the drug is dangerous, but was forced to add a black box warning by the FDA. Generally, a black box warning means that you should not take this drug unless you have no other option. It is extremely important not to take this drug if you suffer from diabetes but also have heart diseases or are at high risk of suffering a heart attack. You must also insist that your doctor monitor you more carefully for cardiovascular complications.

If you or a family member have had any personal injuries as a result of taking rosiglitazone, you might also want to speak to an attorney to find out if you have a legal case against the drugmaker and demand compensation.

Trasylol recall

The story with drug companies is always the same. They know that their drugs are dangerous and could even killing the people but lust for profit is so high that they keep pushing the drug as long as they can.

Then they get caught. And that is the point at which Bayer has arrived with regards to anti-bleeding drug Trasylol (aprotinin), which has been linked to a higher risk of death. The drug is used during heart bypass surgery.

For as long as one year a mountain of data had shown risk of death, kidney failure and strokes but only after regulators in several countries forced it, the company has decided to recall it. As expected, the lawsuits by victims will be filed soon.
