Hier is veel te doen geweest over BBW's. Is nu niet meer echt aan de orde, maar, ik las daarnet in de newsfeed van Bolero dit bericht via Reuters :
UPDATE 1-FDA drops boxed warning from Johnson & Johnson's diabetes drug label
15:58 (26/08) - Bron: Reuters
Aug 26 (Reuters) - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Wednesday removed a boxed warning about increased risk of leg and foot amputations with Johnson & Johnson's diabetes
drug Invokana.
The decision is based on data from recent clinical trials that suggests that the risk of amputation, while still increased with the drug, is lower than previously attributed, when
monitored appropriately, the health regulator said.
Invokana was approved in 2017 to be used with diet and exercise to lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes.
Reviews of new clinical data also showed the drug had additional heart and kidney related benefits, the agency said.

Invokana generated sales of $790 million in 2019, a decline
of 20% from a year earlier.
