GlaxoSmithKline PLC has reportedly agreed to pay $60 million to settle about 700 Avandia lawsuits filed over side effects of their diabetes drug. However, the drug maker still faces thousands of other similar suits filed throughout the United States alleging that they failed to adequately warn about the risk of heart attacks, heart failure and other injuries. 

The Avandia settlements were reached to between Glaxo and two law firms representing hundreds of clients, sources told Bloomberg News. The agreement is believed to be the first settlement of Avandia injury claims brought by users, and Bloomberg reports that the drug maker is continuing negotiations to settle Avandia lawsuits with other lawyers.

Avandia (rosiglitazone) was approved in the United States in 1998 to treat type 2 diabetes by helping control blood sugar levels. The drug has been used by millions of diabetics, but sales have plummeted in recent years as concerns have mounted about the risk of serious and potentially life-threatening heart risks with Avandia. Some experts estimate that Avandia has caused between 60,000 and 200,000 heart attacks and deaths due to cardiovascular problems in the U.S. from 1999 to 2006.

Concerns about the risk of heart problems with Avandia first gained widespread attention in May 2007, when a meta-analysis of 42 different clinical trials was published in the New England Journal of Medicine, suggesting that users of Avandia had a 43% increased risk of a heart attack.

In the United States, GlaxoSmithKline PLC currently faces thousands of lawsuits over Avandia filed by former users of the drug who allege that the drug company failed to adequately research their medication or warn users about the serious side effects. Federal Avandia litigation has been consolidated into an MDL, or Multidistrict Litigation, for pretrial litigation in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, where the first trial is expected to begin in July.

Details of the agreement are unknown, including the nature of the injuries involved in the cases. However, the Avandia settlement breaks down to an average of about $86,000 per plaintiff.

Pressure to resolve the Avandia cases has increased in recent months with the first trials approaching and a renewed push by critics for a recall of Avandia to be issued.

Earlier this year, a Senate report was released that criticized GlaxoSmithKline for intimidating doctors who spoke out about Avandia side effects and for failing to adequately warn users about the risk of a heart attack from side effects of Avandia.

Last week, at a House Agriculture Appropriations subcommittee hearing, several lawmakers entered testimony criticizing the FDA for not issuing an Avandia recall and questioning how the drug was ever approved in the first place.

FDA is currently conducting an Avandia safety review and estimates that it will conclude its investigation some time in July. Some of the FDA’s own drug reviewers said as early as 2007 that Avandia poses too great of a health risk for too few benefits. The FDA is considering pulling the plug on an Avandia study, called TIDE, which is looking at the side effects of Avandia compared to those of Actos, a competing diabetes medication manufactured by Takeda Pharmaceuticals. The FDA says that given the Avandia heart attack risks, it may be unethical to continue the trials.

I have been reading all these complaints about the Avandia law suit it is a joke that the attorneys get more then the people who suffered with death an heart attacks and more. I for one had a heart attack from taking avandia in 2008, I feel we should all start a suit against these attorneys that are stealing from everyone and petition the courts to put a limit on how much these attorneys are allowed to get.
joe
It is 10:30 a.m. Oct 17th. On saturday, I rec’d a letter in the mail from my Health Insurance requesting That I fill out the following infor and mail it back. The questions that was asked was if I was taken avandia, did I have any heart related injury due to avandia and if I am pursuing a lawsuit against Gsk. Also a question on who is my lawyer. Today, Monday I called my lawyer and ask about this. The first thing he said was,”DO NOT FILL OR SIGN ANYTHING< BUT TO FORWARD TO HIM THE LETTER AND QUESTIONAIRE. BY LAW, NO "PRIVATE" insurance IS ALLOWED TO QUESTION THE PLAINTIFF< LOOKING FOR INFOR ON WHAT YOU ARE DOING. If any folks out here re'cd any insurance letter, please let your lawyer know.
michelle
i took Avandia in 1998.. intill 2002 i went in the hospital for bac chest pain.. they did all the fszf and siad i am going to be ok.. i to this day still have the pain .i sent my clain form in and they said there still waiting for the makers of the drugs to come up with a number that will be .. and now they say they will go through all claims to find out .. who gets to be a part of the bigger claim or see who get a personal claim
jeff
Hi, Barb I just filed with Wagners law firm in Halifax, They are still taking clients for Avandia class action suit all through canada.
Joe
60 million, the lawers will get approx. 20 million plus all expenses ie; travel,hotel rooms,food,return phone calls at approx.100/150 per hr In a MDL case the Judge accually has to finallize a motion to set rates they can charge,ie;plane fares,hotel rates,ect.Can you fathem the odosity of them to ask the Judge “how much can we charge more than one third”.Once you sign the terms and agreement you are no longer known as a person you are a dollar sign,and for them to reach out to the family about the case is to much work as they are handing other cases to double/or triple their income. unfortunatly this the way america alows them to work,as the bankers do. Its all about the profit.These cases only the law firm gets the settlement.i stopped thinking about the case because i know i will get a call when the law firm needs my signature so they can get paid. Nothing else will ease the pain just pray we never have to go through this again.

RE: Joe comment dated 9/25…OMG…are you simple or what??? What does Mrs O have to do with any of this???? Really!!! Why don’t you suggest to the other readers to solicit the FDA since the crooks there make decisions regarding drugs on the market…And since many members on Glaxo’s team is also a part of the FDA….come on, be for real and talk a little more educated. Blame ALL the lawyers for this fiasco (they are the ones getting rich in this mess and it was their responsibility to “fight” for what is right )…Put blame where blame belong is all I’m trying to convey. Geesh…

Joe I signed on with a Law Firm back in 2008 and I still haven’t heard how much I will get. I was 36 years old when I suffered a stroke and congestive heart failure. When I was 38 I had two bypass surgeries on my left leg. Then just last year I had to have two stents placed in my right ventricle. I have also have anemia, and have been placed on disability for the rest of my life. And you say 40k I should take and run. That’s a joke
Barb
My husband died suddenly at the age of 44 while taking Avandia. Coroners report states cause of death to be left ventricular hytropophy. I am in Canada and the one lawyer I could find on the internet had dropped his suit over a year ago. Does anyone know about a lawsuit going on in Canada?
Joe
Seems we are all in the same boat. I signed on with a law firm one and a half years ago with no results and very little contact from them. After reading a lot of the posted articles on the web concerning this drug and how it is being protected by certain spokesman for the drug company, our chances of a fair settlement is very slim. My reason for saying that is because it is still available here in the US under certain restrictions. As long as they allow this drug to be in use we are screwed point blank. IMO if you get 40K in your pocket after all is said and done you can consider yourself lucky. That is peanuts for what you have to live with. I never fully recovered from my heart attack and now live a life of just sitting in a chair unable to do too much at all. When I was a kid I remember adults saying to each other that as long as you had your health you had everything but I never understood that till now. You would think the government would step in and come to the aid of the plaintiffs but they are no where in sight though Mrs O wants to tell everybody what to eat and drink. Oh well.
Robin
I was thirty seven years old when I had my quadrouple heart bypass, and had been on avandia for around two years. My life has been turned up side down. At the time I had a thirteen year old son and loving husband at home. My life will never be the same. I’, now fourty three and still have trouble staying tired and out of breath with common house hold chorse. I feel like I’ve lost part of who I was. Things I used to do , I have trouble with or can’t. I was a vital young mother, and now sometimes I feel usless, but I will say reading the stories I feel glad I’, still here for my family especially my gift from god son who will turn twenty next week. to all of you that lost your loved one I am so very sorry.
Tom
Has anyone out there settled with this lawsuit, I am being represented by the Branch Law Firm in Albuquerque New Mexico, and they referred me to This Garreston Settlement group for payment, that was 10 months ago…Now what?
joe
Kendall, They are many reasons why your lawyer want you to settle. The main reason is to get his percentage.. I don’t know what you been told, but if you refused the offer, most lawyers will inform them that they must seek another lawyer to represent them, if they want to go to trial. The “system” will place you with the other folks who want to go to court. What happen next is you are put on hold until all the claims are settle. This could take years. You might be looking at about 5 years just to go to court. It could be less. Now if you win, than you are looking at appeals. This could take another 5 years. It is up to you. Good luck
kendall

The papers on witch you speak, are they the papers with fact information and a wittness must sign?
me
People who received final papers in Aug., please send your papers back in. I spoke with my attorneys office this am and was told our payment timeline depends on how fast they receive them back. I, for one, need the money!
joe
James, your response for Aug 24th, what do you mean case expenses. This should be part of his percentage of what he took. This is a lawsuit, not a court trial.
James
Billie: Thank you sooo much for your comment (dated 8/25/11) God Bless you
billie
i understand james. everyone want a piece of the pie. i was in a lawsuit once jame, the people”s in charge sign up all of thier people”s.the atty help out all of their atty. friend. you know what deal you made with your atty.can no one dispute that. sometime we take the bitter with the sweet.bad people” work to take advantage of us.james look to the hills which cometh our help.stay with us on the blog and let us know how you are doing.
james
First, my lawyer gets 40%…..his net is more than my net since a large amount came out of my net for medicaire and case expenses… So, when you compare his “net” to my ‘net”, his net is clearly hgher.
joe
James, I am not understanding on what you are saying. Please explain how your lawyer made more on the settlement then you. How did he get more than 33% and you still got less?
jeff
my Father died in 2005, and family now just finding out about the dangers in 2011, still time to sue dont give up they have a Discovery rule you can use if your statute runs out.
James
Yes people, don’t get excited…..The outcomes are horrible….DO NOT GET YOUR HOPES UP HIGH….Received my offer and the bottom line is that my lawyer will net more than me…..how can that happen!!! It’s so sad that the world we live in is sooo screwed up. Funny how a person can go to a fast food chain, spill coffee on themselves and turn around and sue AND WIN…..We are clearly not the winners in the case unlesss you’re the lawyer. Richard (commend dated 8/18/11) is absolutely right. He is speaking the truth. I’m going thru the same exact thing……Well, I guess 2 more years of fighting, waiting, etc…..Good Luck to everyone else.
richard
as we now know for sure the lawyers make all the money, so we are victims twice. my atty. made an offer that I was not satisfied with and I was Informed to find another lawyer. this was not supposed to be a class action suit , according to the papers this was the best offer out there. so now I am looking for a good lawyer to go to a trial w/ a jury. on my contract there Is a no class action clause and that is where they put my case.when i said repeatedly ‘ NO CLASS ACTION” SUIT ”
billie
mary beth, you has given us hope. news like this is good news. atleast some one is getting close to getting pay.no one can give the figure. we have to wait until i time come to sign the papers. it is clear that you tell no one.
joe
Mary Beth, If it is possible, can you tell us a ball park figure, of the offer you received. Thanks.
billie

billie

Mary Beth
I had a heart attack back in 2007 that required 2 stents. I then had another in 2008, and that one ended up with a multiple bypass. I filed my claim in 2008. I called my attorney regularly, with not much news. Then in March, I received an offer letter that was made to the entire law firm for such and such dollars, and it also stated how many claimants the firm had. I called the lawyer to verify all of this, and he told me to sign it, and send it back. He also stated they would be sending it to Garretson for evaluation. He advised me that it could take 6-8 months or maybe even more. I can not tell you how surprised I was to find the Fed Ex man at my door, with a letter to sign for. To my disbelief, it was my final offer amount. It was more than I expected dollar wise, and it also stated that my claim would be funded by the end of the year. I cannot tell you what a blessing this was, I had all but given up, even with the papers I had signed and sent back, I still did not believe anything would ever come of this. I wish all the rest of you the best of luck, and hopefully the Fed Ex man will be at your door any day now as well. Thank you all for you posts in the past, that had given me some hope all along.

My mother was not one of the lucky one to survive, she was talking Avandia also, we lost her in November 2007, and they had bought her back. But sadly I (MY Family) was devastated when we lost my mother in April 14, 2008 due to taking Avandia drug… Look how many people had die between 60,000 and 200,000 people had – heart attacks(or) and deaths due to cardiovascular problems, because of this medication. You know I hope everyone get paid a good settlement… But it won’t bring our love one back,, MY LIFE IS NOT THE SAME.. I LOST MY MOTHER AND MY BEST FRIEND…
gene
jacqueline what were the consequences of your taking avandia, how long were you on it. Did you have a heart attack. Hard to understand how it could drop from 15,000 to 2,500. maybe by your sharing it could help the rest of us.
joe
jacqueline, if you got a settlement letter, please explain. What was the total amount of money and how many people in your group? What was your medical history before and after your “medical incident”. What incident took place. Was it a heart attack, heart problems, any complications after your “incident”. Thanks.
joe
Faith, the nurses and the doctors, who are they. Do they work for Gsk, Garretson, or the lawyer who sent the claims.
jacqueline
If you think you are getting a lot of money you are not. They offer me 15,000 which will leave me 2,500. The heart is not worth a dime enjoy.
Faith
Just an update on what my attorney has told me ( I haven’t posted since May 2010, but appreciate all of your comments as they have been insightful and I see that we are not alone in our plight for some sort of justice) November 2010, I received notification from my attorney that GSK has offered a settlement MDL for 700 Plaintiffs, various law firms got together and they chose the Garreston as the Administrator. Garretson is actually the resolution group that act somewhat as trustees. I think the main delay is that the attorneys want to acrue interest on all that money before distributing it. As of June, my attorneys say that cases are being worked in batches. The first batch was paid in April 2011 (see Miller ad on You Tube). The second batch should have been in May and in June, they were working on the third batch. You may want to contact your attorney to see what batch you fall in. If I understand correctly, the nurses & doctors review the medical evidence as well as proof of use prior to death or heart attack, then send the file over to GSK for approval that claimant has met the buden of proof. From that point, the attorneys will make the claimant a firm settlement offer, then it will be up to the claimant to either accept of deny. My advice: Let’s pray for one another- that there be no more delay, compensation will be on point and we can proceed to getting our lives back on track with this ordeal behind us. Blessings, Faith~
joe
Rick, You are one hell of a person. I cannot believed that while they were working on your heart, you were “awake”. I had the angioplasty done awake, before I was transfer to a major heart hospital, but I was so tired that I really didn’t feel much. It was two in the morning. But for you to be awake when they were working on you and seeing all the high tech machinery and hearing the doctors talking on what to do or hearing them say “be careful”, Has got to be the most frightful event of your life. has I said, I was to tired and falling asleep on the table. I am waiting now to see what the offer is going to be. My lawyer is charging me and I quote,”The standard one third plus the fee from the third party to place a value on my claim. According to Matina, it look like that if you had taken avandia, and an medical incident took place within one year, you’ll do decent. Not great. Some people accept this some people won’t. Also, God bless you and your wife for 41 plus years of marriage. I am only a baby next to you, Marriage 25 years. Talk to you later.
An Observer
I see Joe the blowhole has taken this website too!
Rick
I have read all of the posts of others and have read all of their stories. I too have had Avandia in the past. I was taken off by my Doctor a year ago. This past March, after leaving the hospital for surgery on my arm and hand, I suffered a heart attack. I went home and 4 hours later I was back in the hospital with a heart attack. An angioplasty was performed on me and it was found that I had a blockage in my heart. The Doctor tried to put a stent in but could not get the blockage removed. It was solid. Instead they ran another tube around the blockage to get blood to the lower portion of my heart. The blockage was sealed in place so it would not be able to cause any more problems.All in the operating room with me awake. I did not know how serious it was until later when I got back to my room. It scared the crap out of me and my wife. When I saw the ad on TV about Avandia, I sent in the email and have received a packet from a law firm in Texas asking me to fill it out immediately. I carefully read the information and found that the Attorney will get 40% of the settlement plus all expenses. I questioned that amount and was told by the Attorney that the amount is standard in cases like this. I was told that in cases like this, the amount of the “expenses” was usually only a “few hundred dollars” and with a potential settlement of $100,000.00, it was only negligable. So, I filled out the paperwork and will mail it off today. I figure what have I got to loose. I have been married 41 years and 3 days and plan on being around a few years more. I only pray that the rest of you people last longer too. Thanks to all of you for your comments. My daughter sent me this link and I plan on following up on the law suit as it progresses. My life has been turned upside down just like the rest of you, but I am still holding on. I guess I did not realize just how serious this medication and my condition really was or is. Again, thanks for the information!
Jann
I almost died from taking Avandia for several years. While being admitted to the hospital the doctor valuated my meds and told me never to take Avandia again due to complications.I would like to get some kind of restitution.
joe
Makeiha, Why is the lawyer getting mad for. That what I’ll be concerned about. All you did was ask a question or two. You must make sure that the lawyer filed your case. Some people here has found out that some of the lawyers never filed. Next, find out what district court the the judge is in and who the judge is. If the judge has the “group” case, and you confirmed that you are part of the file group, then all you do is wait for the statement by the judge.
Lisa
Makeiha, I also take Metformin and watch your stomach as well, and yes my kidneys do not function well while taking it amongst the swelling, absolutely.. Guess this is another drug trying to kill us, would we not be better but just done eat instead of these drugs for with or without them we will all see jesus one day. has anyone heard anything about settlements for Houston Texas or where we can go to find out whats up with our cases, my lawyer said the judge has it and wait for the packet, but NO INFO and when i ask he gets mad and offended for nothing, im asking myself right now, if i have a letter from the judge Joe should i be worried, i called another lawyer and its to late to start over and i have lost all now and homeless, please if anyone knows anything about the case in Houston please advise me..All i know is they better cough it up soon and i mean soon im tired of this dog and pony show here
Lisa
GLAXO SMITH ATTENTION: CAN YOU SEE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO ALL OF OUR LIVES ON THIS PAGE, YOU AND YOUR COMPANY…YOU ARE LEGALLY MURDERES, I PRAY TO GOD THEY MAKE YOU PAY ND IT BETTER NOT BE SOME MEASLY 86,000 ARE F>>>>>> KIDDING ME HERE, I WAS 40 AND ALMOST DROPPED DEAD , NOW I CANT TAKE CARE OF MYSELF OR MY AUTISTIC COGNETIVE CHILD, I LIE THERE MOST DAYS AND WISHED I WAS DEAD >>YOU WILL PAY FOR GOD YES I SAID GOD IS BIGGER THAN YOU AND YOU HAVE BAAAADDDD KARMA COMING…I HOPE YOU GO BROKE LIKE I DID AH
joe
Joe, what you need to do is get the name of the doctor who told you to stay on the drug. Go see another lawyer and let him know what you just posted. You must try. Even if you sign any papers to start the study, you found out the danger and the doctor knew the risk, you requested out and he said that you should finish the study. Good luck.
Joe
I was a patient in the VA Health Care Study from 1999 till 2007 and was on Avandia the whole time. I suffered a heart attack in May 2007 and still had few more months to go in the study. I notified my VA Dr. and he advised me to CONTINUE TAKING THE DRUG till the end of the study even though he knew of the risk. There are a lot of people that have to answer for this starting from the top to the bottom. Since the heart attack my ability to work is severely hampered as it takes me 3 times longer to do the same amount of work that I did before the attack. I doubt the victims will be treated fairly in the end as $86,000 really isn’t that much money in today’s world. My lawyer’s fee is 40% of the settlement. I had a hard time finding a local lawyer so I used one of the national advertised groups. So far so good but the waiting is the worst thing as you wonder if you will receive your money before you die.
joe
JW and joe, Jw, all you can do is just keep on checking in with your lawyer. Don’t just ask how much longer. Ask if my medical records are ok. Tell them that you been told me 3 more months almost forever. During all this time up keep on delaying to keep it going on 3 more months. Joe, I know that this is a scam, so does everybody else. Here the question. can you prove it.
joe j
i think the avandia deal is a big scam.
