Typical reductions in glycated hemoglobin (A1C) values are 1.5–2.0%. Some examples are:

  • Rosiglitazone (Avandia): the European Medicines Agency recommended in September 2010 that it be suspended from the EU market due to elevated cardiovascular risks.
  • Pioglitazone (Actos): remains on the market but has also been associated with increased cardiovascular risks.
  • Troglitazone (Rezulin): used in 1990s, withdrawn due to hepatitis and liver damage risk.
