This is a heads up to those with type II diabetes or have friends/family who might and take Avandia by GSK for treatment. If you have not been following the news, Avandia is currently under fire for causing increased chances of heart problems (shown to cause a 43 percent increase in the risk of heart attacks). I am not sure if the drug will be pulled from the market, but it seems that there is a lot of evidence that GSK knew of these risks long ago and decided to bury it. Stay safe everyone.
