Experiences with

Actos

I having no luck getting any physician to prescribe Actos for NASH and wondering the response others have received. I keep getting that Actos really isn’t prescribe anymore, too risky, or they just don’t believe in providing any medicines for NASH.

I take a number of drugs for my cirrhosis, including diabetic drugs such as metformin, Victoza, and Actos. I take a little bit of nadalol (20mg/day) to keep my varices small. I recently had a series of iron infusions.

I have spinal problems (MRI shows NO compession of the cord or on any area affecting urology< I have PRE- Diabetes---I am on ACTOS...but pre diabetes does NOT cause PAIN in testes.

If you are at increased risk of falls, try to avoid the use of a SGLT-2 inhibitor List of common diabetes medications that affect the skeleton Thiazolidinediones or TZDs, (Actos® or pioglitazone, Avandia® or rosiglitazone) SGLT-2 Inhibitors (Invokana® or canagliflozin, Forxiga® or dapagliflozin

I took my metformin my glipizide and actos. Always this dreadful crash happens. I had to go to bed. 10am. Slept til 12.30 i had to shower and dress and leave at 1pm for church at 1.30 hampton court bridge was dreadful. Traffic in all directions.

Now I am taking all except Actos ( due to its warning side effects) . Is it safe to get into insulin rather than taking all this tablets to reduce my HBA1c adverse condition.

I cut off 2MG AMARYL, 30 MG ACTOS from my night medicine. My FBS gradually kept increasing and now in the range of 170-180. My random checks are fine ( between 110- 140). Feeling very sad and perhaps I have to start my meds again along with lchf. Any good suggestion to control FBS?

As asked once again a week later to phone to see if my form gone over to actos, assessment. Answer they know nothing of it when l phoned them. Phone atos,Seems it did go across in Aug after l sent it in and was sent back in Oct. So why was l not told of outcome.

MEDICINES = Morning ( Janumet + Amaryl 2 mg) , Evening ( same as morning + ACTOS). Now questions. I want to reduce medicines as part of my over all goal. what is right strategy for reducing medicines ? for last one week I reduced night medicine of 1 amaryl and 1 actos.

Hai all One Doctor advised that ACTOS is very important for diabettic patient and prescribed it. I consumed it for 2 years. When I shifted from Dubai to Abu dhabi the Abu Dhabi Doctor prescribed it for the first 3-4 months. Then he stopped to prescribe.

One of the studies tested empagliflozin as monotherapy for patients with type 2 diabetes, while two others evaluated it as an adjunct to other standard drugs including metformin, sulfonylurea agents, and pioglitazone (Actos).
