Avandia
is a drug approved to treat Type 2 diabetes. Safety data from recent studies
indicated a potentially significant increase in the risk of heart attack and
heart-related deaths on patients taking Avandia. Avandia was approved in 1999
for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, a serious and life-threatening disease
that affects 18 to 20 million Americans. The FDA updated the product's label in
2006 to include a new warning about a potential increase in heart attacks and
heart-related chest pain in some individuals using Avandia. Avandia is
manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline, which is based in Research Triangle Park in
North Carolina.
