If you suffer from Type 2 diabetes and took Actos to control your blood sugar and have been diagnosed with bladder cancer, you need to quickly act to both manage the disease and preserve your legal rights. When detected early enough, most bladder cancer cases are successfully treated with surgery. In later stages, radiation and chemotherapy may also be used; sometimes even all three are used together. Even when successfully treated initially, the odds of bladder cancer recurring are alarming. Actos bladder cancer lawyers are accepting cases against the drug’s maker based upon inadequate warnings given to the public. The earliest Actos drug safety studies, some of which were done by the drug’s maker, showed an increased risk of developing bladder cancer after using Actos. Recent European studies have led to the recall of Actos in France, but even though the FDA has issued two Actos cancer warnings, it remains in the market and in widespread use in the United States.
