Ron Bell is an experienced New Mexico drug injury attorney and he wants you to know about the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes when taking Lipitor. Lipitor is a medication that can lower risk of heart attack, heart surgery, stroke, and chest pain in patients who have had heart disease or are at risk to have heart disease. However, women who were taking Lipitor experienced high blood sugar levels and may be at higher risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.
In 2012, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration reported serious health risks for patients using drugs like Lipitor. The report said that these types of drugs had serious risks for patients, including causing problems controlling blood sugar and the development of Type 2 diabetes in women. Because of this, drugs like Lipitor updated their packaging with additional information about these risks. Before this, Lipitor was marketed as safe and effective, despite data suggesting the link to Type 2 diabetes.
