European Medicines Agency Scientific Studies on Pioglitazone

The European Medicines Agency released a scientific study on the benefits and risks of the drug pioglitazone, also known as Actos, in January of 2007. This drug is currently used as a single treatment for Type 2 diabetes or in a dual combination form with metformin or sulphonylurea. When used alone, pioglitazone is typically used as therapy for the overweight patient whose Type 2 diabetes is not being controlled through diet and exercise and for whom the drug metformin is inappropriate.

Actos® and Congestive Heart Failure

The drug Actos, also known as pioglitazone is marketed by Takeda Pharmaceuticals and Eli Lilly for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes. The drug was approved in 1999, and although the manufacturer touts it as a miracle drug which has reduced the number of diabetes cases by as much as 70%, the side effects may far outweigh the benefits. A study done in 2003 by the Mayo Clinic definitively linked Actos to swelling in the feet, lung fluid retention, shortness of breath and congestive heart failure.
