Manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline, Avandia is a prescription medication that treats type two diabetes by aiding the body's natural use of insulin. First introduced in 1999, Avandia has been prescribed to millions of diabetes patients. However, the drug has been associated with serious Avandia side effects, including but not limited to heart failure, heart attack, stroke and cardiac death. Due to these potential Avandia side effects, the FDA has placed strict usage restrictions on the drug. As of Sept. 23, 2010, Avandia can only be prescribed to diabetes patients who cannot control their condition with other medications and who have been fully informed of the potential Avandia side effects.

Patients who were taking Avandia for diabetes and have suffered from cardiac side effects may be able to participate in an Avandia lawsuit to recover financial compensation. Additionally, family members who have lost a loved one due to an Avandia side effect may also be able to recover monetary damages.
