Are other dibetes drugs available for patients with Type 2 diabetes?
Yes, there are several types of diabetes drugs for the disease and patients sometimes take more than one drug at a time. Along with insulin there are drugs called sulfonylureas which are older and sold as glyburide, glimepiride, and glipizide. Another diabetic patient prescribed generic drug is metformin. Many people that took Avandia for diabetes have developed heart problems so they have turned to other medications. This has led to them seeking lawyers and attorneys that can help them recover damages to pay for the injury and expense of medical treatments from the heart problems they have had. If you took Avandia for diabetes and later had a heart attack or other heart problem, you may have a claim and should seek the advice of an Avandia lawyer.
