Avandia

Avandia, along with diet and exercise, lowers blood sugar and can help keep it under control. Avandia does this by helping your body use its own natural insulin better. Avandia improves blood sugar control in adults with type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes. Avandia can be used alone or in combination with a sulfonylurea, metformin, or insulin. Avandia can also be used in addition to a sulfonylurea plus metformin when diet, exercise, and both agents are not enough to control blood sugar. Avandia is not for everyone. Do not use Avandia for type I diabetes (juvenile diabetes) or diabetic ketoacidosis. If you have heart failure, fluid retention, or active liver disease your healthcare provider will evaluate you to decide if Avandia is right for you.

Avandia Symptoms and Side Effects

Avandia can cause or worsen heart failure. If you have severe heart failure (very poor pumping ability of the heart), you cannot be started on Avandia. Avandia is also not recommended if you have heart failure with symptoms (such as shortness of breath or swelling) even if these symptoms are not severe. Avandia may increase your risk of other heart problems that occur when there is reduced blood flow to the heart, such as chest pain (angina) or heart attack (myocardial infarction). This risk appeared higher in patients taking medicines called nitrates or insulin. Taking Avandia with insulin or with nitrates is not recommended. If you have chest pain or a feeling of chest pressure, you should seek immediate medical attention, regardless of what diabetes medicines you are taking.

If you take Avandia, tell your doctor right away if you:

  • Have swollen legs or ankles, a rapid increase in weight or difficulty breathing, or unusual tiredness
  • Experience changes in vision
  • Become pregnant
  • Review your medical history and tell your doctor if you:

  • Have heart failure or other heart problems
  • Have liver problems or liver disease
  • Are pregnant or are nursing

  • Women taking Avandia should know that Avandia may increase the risk of pregnancy.

    Some common possible side effects of Avandia

  • cough or cold
  • headache
  • inflammation of the sinuses
  • back pain
  • swelling or fluid retention
