Rezulin® was prescribed for blood sugar control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus- (non-insulin dependent diabetes). However, has been shown to cause serious injuries in those taking the drug.

Rezulin® was recalled in the United States in March 2000 due to liver toxicity. (England banned Rezulin in December, 1997). At least 63 patients have died of liver failure while taking Rezulin, and many more have suffered liver damage. Warner-Lambert reportedly made $2.1 billion from sales.

It’s really terrible to read about a prescription drug being recalled because of dangerous side effects, when you’re one of the people taking it. That’s what happened to me a few years ago. I suffer from a chronic disease and my doctor prescribed a drug to help me manage it better. After being on the drug for a while I began to feel weak and reported it to my doctor. I can’t say enough good things about him, he saved my life. He realized that my problems were being caused not by my disease but by the prescription drug that was supposed to be helping me.   CONTINUE
