I believe this medication killed ny husband, and if the fda thinks its’s not bad all of them should take it to make sure it is safe for others. Something being wrong in 1999 the medication should of been taken off the market at that time. Instead it is left on the market to kill more people or make them go blind. People in the fda get this off the market it is very bad, i saw my husband go through a lot of stuff respitory problems, eye problems and the last he was going to get his liver checked but the medication avandia killed him before the liver test.
