Just Dumped Actos

So far I've lost 18 lb. This morning I discontinued actos. A month ago or so I discontinued Januvia. Also my blood pressure is nice and low on half my losartan dose.
My remaining meds (for DM2):
Metformin 1g twice a day
Losartan 50 mg once a day
Aspirin 81 mg once a day
Mevacor 40mg once a day
CoQ10 100mg twice a day
Next goal will be to cut my metformin dose in half when I get below 190 lb which is 4 pounds away. Then I'm done cutting meds.

Hi Tsazani, That's really great news and certainly reflects the effort you've put into gaining control, well done.0

Good for you. Actos was one of the four drugs I was put on when first diagnosed. I hated it. It caused my feet and ankles to balloon up with fluid as well as messed with my skin. It was terrible for me. I hate Actos!0

Good for you! I haven' t gotten that far yet but I'm on my way. I'm on Actos also. It would be great to NOT BE on it.0
