FDA Slaps Major Restrictions onto Avandia

By Dr. Ron Rosedale | Published: November 12, 2011

This is an interview with Shelley Schlender, KGNU radio, Boulder, Colorado. Thank you Shelley for the article, graphics and the interview below. You can learn more about Shelley and her passion for exposing the truth in health at her website, www.meandmydiabetes.com

From the FDA Press Release on September 23rd: “The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced that it will significantly restrict the use of the diabetes drug Avandia (rosiglitazone) to patients with Type 2 diabetes who cannot control their diabetes on other medications. These new restrictions are in response to data that suggest an elevated risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attack and stroke, in patients treated with Avandia.”

Ron Rosedale
A long time ago, maybe 15 years ago, when I was in Asheville, North Carolina, before leptin was discovered, I was doing a lot of research on my patients about insulin, to see what lowered it, what raised it. I remember one boy who came in, brought in by really nice parents. He was a rolly polly 11-year old. They were both thin, and they were wondering why he was getting fat.

He was starting to get ridiculed by his classmates and it was affecting him. His fasting insulin was quite low. So I said, well, let’s see what happens. Let’s feed him half a piece of toast. I had done this to other people, too. I knew that most people who have toast, it’ll cause their insulin to go from maybe a baseline of 5, which is quite good, to maybe the 30s or 40s, which is somewhat high. (Note-This rise happens during a 2-hour test) I measured his insulin level, after he ate a piece of toast, and his insulin levels went into the hundreds.

That is like the Dogrib Indians in Canada who were tested by Emoke Szathmary in the 1980s. During a glucose tolerance test where she measured insulin levels, she noticed an extremely high rise in insulin response among a subgroup of the Dogrib who, over time, proved to be much more prone to develop diabetes when they’re eating the American diet. (When eating their traditional diet of fish and game meat, they did not get diabetes)

Avandia Under Fire – with Dr. Ron Rosedale interviewed by Shelley Schlender

By Dr. Ron Rosedale | Published: November 8, 2011

Interviewed by Shelley Schlender, KGNU radio, Boulder, Colorado. Thank you Shelley for the article, graphics and the interview with Dr. Rosedale below. You can learn more about Shelley and her passion for exposing the truth in health at her website, www.meandmydiabetes.com

INTRODUCTION: Avandia is a drug that’s been used for over a decade to lower blood sugars in people with diabetes. The reason that made Avandia important is that, in diabetics, blood sugars levels can go dangerously high. They can hurt your heart, your kidneys, your eyes, every part of you. High blood sugars can kill you. And if you think this won’t ever happen to you, are you overweight? Do you wish you had more energy? Do you need to urinate a lot — especially after eating something sweet? How about high blood pressure? Those all can be symptoms of diabetes. And if a checkup reveals that your blood sugars are high, you might need to bring them down–with daily insulin shots. Or exercise. You could change your diet. Or, how about taking a little pill? Such as Avandia? Read More »

A day in the life as a patient visiting Dr. Rosedale for the first time.

Thank you Shelley Schlender for documenting this ‘checkup with Dr. Rosedale’ and for the work she has done on the article, graphics and the interview below. You can learn more about Shelley and her passion for exposing the truth in health at her website, www.meandmydiabetes.com

Magdalena had diabetes and congestive heart failure. This is a true story, and this is a real transcript of a checkup that Magdalena and her family agreed for me to record, with Dr. Ron Rosedale in 2004. We have changed some names to hide identities. It’s a hard story to begin sharing because these are people I know and care about. We share this interview in hopes that it will provide information useful to other people facing challenging illnesses.

Letting the sunshine in on doctor-pharma relationships — Andrew Jack — bmj.com pharmaceuticals correspondent

By Dr. Ron Rosedale | Published: November 4, 2011

Drug companies are increasingly obliged to publish details of payments to doctors. The United States is leading the charge, but are we getting the full story in Europe? Andrew Jack reports..

When the drug company Cephalon took 13 British doctors to the European pain congress in Lisbon in September 2009, the expenses it provided did not stop with travel, fees, and accommodation—and its presentations were not limited to a balanced scientific explanation of its products at a day time satellite meeting. An internal feedback document circulated to the sales team at the company (now owned by Teva) described one evening’s festivities that it funded for staff and doctors: “Dinner was fantastic . . . we then went to a few bars and to a club till 3am. All the customers were really looked after and spoke positively about Effentora [fentanyl]—let’s make sure they start Rxg [prescribing] now!”
