Byetta

Diabetes drug Byetta has been linked to acute pancreatitis.  In October of 2007, the FDA reported events of acute pancreatitis, or sudden inflammation of the pancreas.  At the time it was requested that Amylin Pharmaceuticals, the manufacturer of Byetta, add information about acute pancreatitis to the label.

The FDA recently announced that it intends to strengthen the warnings on the Byetta label.  Reports of life-threatening pancreatitis have surfaced, including hemorrhagic pancreatitis (inflamed and bleeding pancreas) and necrotizing pancreatitis (inflamed pancreas that destroys itself) resulting in hospitalization and sometimes death.
