Here is some info from a Rezulin ad I saw. This is from the fine print part and I don't know if this "caution" section was pre or post FDA letter.

During all clinical studies in NorthAmer (n=2510) a total of 20 Rez-treated patients were withdrawn for treatment b/c of liver fx test abnormalities. 2/20 developed reversible jaundice. Both had biopsies which were consistent w/ idiosyncratic drug reaction.

In premenopousal anormulatroy patients w/ insulin resistance, Rez may result in resumption of ovulation.

hemogloblin decreased 3-4% compared w/ a 1-2% decrease in placebo. Change occured in first 4-8 weeks. Levels stabilized and remained unchanged(up to two years in my recollection is correct Yes a big IF)

Risk of hypoglycemia if used in combo w/ insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents

Recomend insulin not Rez during pregnancy.
