(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 27, 2012 ) Orlando, Florida – As the number of Actos lawsuits begins to climb, the attorneys at Morgan and Morgan continue to investigate claims on behalf of users of the diabetes drug who were diagnosed with bladder cancer. Pending Actos bladder cancer lawsuits are alleging that the drug causes bladder cancer and that drug companies Takeda Pharmaceutical Co. and co-defendant Eli Lilly & Co. withheld information and failed to adequately warn doctors and patients about this risk. If you were diagnosed with bladder cancer after taking Actos, you may be able to file an Actos lawsuit to seek compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering and other damages. There is a time limit, however, for filing all Actos bladder cancer claims and failure to take legal action within this window will prevent the patient from ever seeking compensation for their diagnosis. To find out if you have legal recourse, the Actos lawsuit attorneys invite you to visit their website at http://www.forthepeople.com/actos-bladder-cancer-lawsuits--11-3360.html for a free case review.
In June 2011, the FDA announced that the use of diabetes medication Actos for more than a year may be linked to an increased risk of bladder cancer. The agency released the Actos bladder cancer announcement after it reviewed data from an on-going, long-term study of the drug. While the information did not reveal an overall increased Actos bladder cancer risk, it did note an increased risk of bladder cancer among those with the longest exposure to the drug and those exposed to the highest cumulative doses. As a result of the Actos bladder cancer risk, the agency recommended that the drug not be used in those with active bladder cancer and prescribed with caution in patients with a prior history of the disease.
In light of the Actos bladder cancer link, the Actos lawsuit attorneys at Morgan and Morgan continue to offer a free online consultation to patients nationwide. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with bladder cancer after taking this drug, visit ForThePeople.com today. The Actos lawsuit attorneys at the firm are providing this free case review at no cost and with no obligation.
