Servier Diabetes Drug, Mediator, Kills At Least 500
A diabetes drug called Mediator that had been used for decades – but was banned just a year ago over links to heart-valve damage – is now being linked by French authorities to some 500 deaths. Mediator, which is also known as benfluorex and was sold by Servier, was also used as an appetite suppressant and had already been banned in the US, Spain and Italy. Our message to all those who took Mediator is that they must see a doctor, particularly those who took it for three months over the past four years, Health Minister Xavier Bertrand told journalists in France after the French regulatory agency, Afssaps, issued its warning and recommendations. Irene Frachon, a doctor who earlier this year published a study warning about the drug, told AFP that Mediator is responsible for a health disasterThe health authorities were late in withdrawing this drug despite several alerts about threats it posed to the heart valves. I know personally some of the victims and what they have suffered. Some of them have undergone open heart surgery and they have to take lots of medication. She estimates 80 percent were women.
