The Connecticut Actos lawyers at Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers are here to help those who have suffered from prescription drug side-effects due to use of the popular diabetes medicine. Actos has been linked to dangerous side effects including increased femur fractures, congestive heart failure and bladder cancer.

In 2011, the FDA released a safety alert linking pioglitazone, the pharmaceutical name for Actos, to an increased risk of bladder cancer. This was based on a five-year study that determined that an increased risk of bladder cancer was noted among patients with the longest exposure to Actos. Furthermore, a recent study in health-characteristics in France has determined that the risk of developing bladder cancer is increased with Actos-use. In response to the correlation between Actos and bladder cancer, the FDA has warned that anyone who has previously been diagnosed or have family history of bladder cancer should not take Actos.
Patients suffering from bladder cancer after taking Actos for Type-2 Diabetes may have a dangerous drug lawsuit. A mass tort lawsuit can be enacted if the Actos manufacturer, Takeda Pharmaceutical Company, failed to properly warn doctors and patients about the inherit risk of bladder cancer.
