the diabetes drug avandia reports side effectsWhile on one hand the medical fraternity is up with arms to fight diabetes, on the other, the blockbuster drug, for the disease, Avandia is whirling out complaints for its reported side-effects of increasing heart risks!

The heart risks from the drug has been reported to have tripled.This find is a serious issue as more than 6 million people worldwide take Avandia to control their blood sugar - i.e. Type 2 diabetes, which is linked to obesity! Already at higher risk for heart attacks, these people are put to greater risk, i.e by 43 percent more -this thought is particular is disturbing.

But, why the increase?

It is that the doctors and the researchers are left unaware of this serious side-effect, or that not many cases of the heart diseased diabetics are reported?

The question arises on why the potential problem from the drug went undetected before it has been on the market shelves eight years ago?

It eventually shows carelessness and flaws on the ’safety tracking system’s’ part.

Whatever be it, when the link is discovered, an immediate action is needed to be taken, both heart disease as well as diabetes being growing serious problems across the world.
