Actos, the diabetes drug manufactured and marketed by Takeda Pharmaceuticals, Inc., reached annual sales of almost $2.5 billion prior to it being found to greatly increase the risk of bladder cancer. The results of a 10-year medical study of patients using Actos conclusively link the drug to a dramatically higher rate of bladder cancer than persons not taking Actos. What was once the most widely-prescribed diabetes medication may have exposed millions of users to bladder cancer.

Multiple medical studies, by both Takeda Pharmaceuticals and independent entities, have shown that taking Actos, especially when taken at higher doses and for periods of a year or more, leads to an increased risk of bladder cancer. What's more, there is evidence to suggest the manufacturer was aware of Actos bladder cancer risks before the drug was approved for market sales in the U.S. If you or a loved one was diagnosed with bladder cancer after taking Actos, an Actos bladder cancer lawsuit will secure your rights.

Actos rose quickly in the market - perhaps too quickly and with too little testing, but there's no question that Actos' rise to prominence was troublesome. Actos propelled Takeda Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to $15 billion in annual sales, with over $6 billion of that coming from Actos. The importance of Actos to Takeda is also without question; the company filed Actos lawsuits against a number of American pharmaceutical companies alleging copyright infringement.
