Type 2 diabetes patients with the highest risk of developing these serious, potentially deadly Avandia side effects include diabetics with a history of such cardiovascular events, high blood pressure, blood clots, smoking and/or heart disease.
Many people who have suffered Avandia heart disease side effects are unaware that the diabetes drug caused their heart problems. The families of diabetics who have died as a result of Avandia cardiovascular problems often are unaware of the cause of their loved one’s heart-related death.
On September 23, 2010, the FDA severely restricted the use of Avandia (rosiglitazone) and combination diabetes drugs Avandamet (rosiglitazone + metformin) and Avandaryl (rosiglitazone + glimepiride). In Europe, the EMA has recommended an Avandia recall.
Avandia lawsuits continue to be filed against drug maker GlaxoSmithKline. The cases against GSK seek financial compensation for personal injury and wrongful death damages suffered after taking the Type 2 diabetes treatment.

“Documents released earlier this year by the Senate Finance Committee suggested that for more than a decade, GlaxoSmithKline deliberately hid study results showing that Avandia could worsen certain risk factors for heart disease.”
I am from the Philippines and my mother, a diabetic for more than 10 years have been taking Avandia ever since. I just found out about the recall this December from the pharmacist of a reputable drugstore when i was about to purchase the drug. There was no news or media information regarding the recall for this drug. Is there any Avandia Lawsuit Claim group you can suggest here in the Philippines. My mother has been complaining of chest pains.
Thank you.
