I just read this article comparing type 2 diabetes drugs Avadia and actos. Which one is more harmful? Anyone else know about this?

I know we’re a tough crowd. I know that much of this stuff seems too good to be true. I know that I’m damn skeptical until I see it working well.

I also know that I’m happy to see so many things being worked on.

IN 105 oral insulin tablet, worlds first oral insulin wll be lunched by India?s premier biotechnology company,BIOCON in august september 2010 in india. BIOCON CMD mrs Kiran Mazumdar Shaw recently announced “And now I would like to quickly shift gears and touch upon some of Biocon?s own novel programs. I think Biocon?s oral insulin is being watched very carefully and with great interest from people all across the world. We are hoping that this will become a blockbuster global opportunity for Biocon because we will look at partnerships to gain that global access. Having said this, I must also be very realistic. This is a program that will have to wait until the clinical data emerges, which will only happen by around June
2010. Patient enrolment is nearing completion but the unblinding of the data will happen only by around June next year. So that is the time we feel that we may be able to make a big announcement on this.
that will be great relief for diabetics who takes pen pain daily

I’m now reading about Novo Nordisk making progress on an oral insulin tablet http://www.reuters.com/article/Health09/idUSTRE5AA3R420091111 — out in 6 years or so, but “a potential game-changer” if the whole tablet thing works out…

Amy:
Thanks for the heads up -and the science lessons!
Hope on the horizon in the form of new diabetes treatment & technologies are great things!

The fact that we are given new options with accuracy, portability, and discretion is wonderful!

Now, if they could just come up with a cure….
