Uses and warnings
BOXED WARNING: "CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE - Thiazolidinediones, including ACTOS, cause or exacerbate congestive heart failure in some patients." Patients should be observed for "signs and symptoms of heart failure (including excessive, rapid weight gain, dyspnea, and/or edema)," and "initiation of ACTOS in patients with established NYHA Class III or IV heart failure is contraindicated." Other key warnings include bladder cancer risk ("16/3656 (0.44%)" reports with pioglitazone vs. "5/3679 (0.14%)" without), increased bone fracture incidence in women (5.1% vs. 2.5% on placebo), and fluid retention that "may lead to or exacerbate heart failure."
ACTOS is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
