My doctor told me to keep taking the advantia until I run out and then he will switch me over to actos.

CTRICH: Are your glucose numbers in the safe range taking 4 medications?
Or have they just reduced them. Hope they're working for you. sg

I'm very confused. Isn't it the Avandia and Actos that have to now have the new "black label"?? not Metformin/glucophage ? I take the actosplus met and januvia. anyone ever heard anything "bad" about januvia? I have never had any side affects on any of my meds...

Avandia will have the black box warning. I bet Actos is next.
