Beware of new drugs would be my motto.
And I'm very curious what this new drug costs?

Sorry, I don't know anything whatsoever about Actos.
I've heard the adverse news about Avandia. After talking to my doctor, he tells me that those having these specific problems are few and already had significant risk factors regarding heart disease. These patients were weaned off of Avandia and placed on a replacement therapy.
Sorry, since I don't take Avandia or Actos, I can't help you with your questions about the costs of these medicines.
