Victoza usage

[gur1302]

I am using Victoza since last 3 years and it seems once it has controlled sugar well. It was advised by Dr Ambrish Mittal of Medanta, considered to be best on the subject.

Request to kindly advise is this the safe one for long term

In 2010, Novo Nordisk breached the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry's (ABPI) code of conduct by failing to provide information about side effects of Victoza, and by promoting Victoza prior to being granted market authorization.

In 2012, the non-profit consumer advocacy group Public Citizen petitioned the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to immediately remove liraglutide from the market because they concluded that risks of thyroid cancer and pancreatitis outweigh any documented benefits.
