Pancreatic Cancer Risks
In recent years, numerous studies have come to light about the serious side effects users may experience while taking Onglyza. In 2013, an article published in the medical journal Diabetes linked use of the medication with higher chances of pancreatic masses and pre-cancerous cellular changes.
Heart Failure Risks
Another 2013 study in the New England Journal of Medicine found a connection between Onglyza use and a higher rate of hospitalization for heart failure.
In 2014, the FDA took notice and began to investigate the seriousness of heart failure risks for Onglyza patients. In 2016, that investigation led to a new heart failure warning on the label.
Problems with Other Diabetes Medications
In 2016, the British Medical Journal published the results of a study in which DPP-4 inhibitors like Onglyza were linked to a life-threatening condition known as hypoglycemia. This situation may impact patients who are taking these drugs in combination with other diabetes drugs in the class sulphonylurea.
Patients who have suffered injuries after taking this dangerous medication may be entitled to pursue an Onglyza lawsuit.
If you or someone you know has been negatively impacted by the dangerous side effects of Onglyza, you may be entitled to file an Onglyza lawsuit.
