Why
are Florida Zyprexa attorneys interested in the fact you have
taken Zyprexa? Because
of the medical history of this drug that is widely used to treat
schizophrenia. It has also been
prescribed for bipolar disorder.
In May 3, 2002, the Medicines Control Agency in Great
Britain warned patients that using Eli Lilly’s medicine,
Zyprexa, could increase chances for diabetes.
That is, Zyprexa “can adversely affect blood
glucose.” In
Britain, out of forty cases reported, four went into coma and
one was fatal.
A
month earlier on April 2002, the Japanese Health and Welfare
Ministry informed the Eli Lilly branch in Japan about the side
effects of Zyprexa after two diabetic patients died while taking
Zyprexa. The
Ministry also reported that seven cases had lost consciousness
or went into coma after using Zyprexa for as long as ten months.
Because
of these findings, the Ministry warned that diabetic patients
should not take the drug and asked Eli Lilly to inform doctors
to closely watch diabetic patients who have been prescribed with
Zyprexa.
