The U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a warning alerting consumers to the risks of using Actos® on June 15, 2011. Actos®, also known as pioglitazone, is a drug used to increase an individual's sensitivity to insulin in those with type 2 diabetes. The FDA found after evaluating studies that users who took the drug for longer than one year were at a 40% increased risk for developing bladder cancer. As caring Washington Actos® recall lawyers, we feel this risk is substantial.

Washington Actos® bladder cancer lawyers know that big drug manufacturing companies often release prescription drugs to the market without providing sufficient information concerning the potential risks to consumers. Such was the case with Actos®. After a five-year study of more than 193,000 patients, the results were substantial enough that the FDA required the maker of Actos®, Takeda Pharmaceuticals North America, Inc., to include additional information regarding the risks of taking the drug.

Those who suspect you have bladder cancer or who have been diagnosed with the disease should contact a reputable Washington Actos® drug recall lawyer right away. You have rights, and those rights need to be protected. When you have suffered injuries after taking potentially dangerous prescription drugs, you may be entitled to compensation of costs related to your injuries. These costs may include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering and more.

Our Washington Actos® recall attorneys want patients to be aware of the symptoms that may indicate bladder cancer. They include:

Lower back or abdominal pain
Urgency in urination/painful urination
Blood in urine, or urine that appears to be red or dark in color
Urinary tract infection

The FDA informed the public that all medications containing pioglitazone put users at a substantially higher risk of developing bladder cancer after taking the drug for one year or longer. Cumulative effects due to higher dosages or taking the drug for prolonged periods of time increase the risk.
