New Concerns Raised Over Common Pills Linked to Heart Risks

Posted on July 20, 2025

In a number of nations, several medications have been taken off the market because they pose serious risks to the heart and blood vessels. The move is new and quite important. Health officials are worried that some medicines can be linked to serious health problems like embolisms, blood clots (thrombi), and even heart attacks. We want to advise patients and healthcare providers to stay alert and be careful right away.

 

 

What are thrombi, and why are they bad?

 

 

Thrombi, or blood clots, can form when blood hardens in a vein or artery. The body normally stops too much bleeding by forming clots, but if clots form in the wrong way in the bloodstream, they can stop blood from getting to crucial organs. This might lead to:

 

 

A pulmonary embolism is a blood clot in the lungs.
Stroke (a blood clot in the brain)
Heart attack: a blockage in the arteries that bring blood to the heart
DVT, or deep vein thrombosis,

 

 

If a clot stops oxygen and nutrients from getting to crucial sections of the body, it can be lethal. That’s why regulatory organizations are particularly careful with medications that are linked to a higher risk of clotting.

 

 

What drugs are being looked into or taken off the market?

 

The names of some pharmaceuticals may be different in different countries and by different regulatory bodies. However, the following types of tablets are the most commonly mentioned:

— Hormonal birth control, like several forms of third-generation birth control pills; — several medicines that lower inflammation
– Certain types of diet pills or treatments that make you less hungry
In other cases, only certain COVID-19 therapies and immunizations are indicated.

 

 

The FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration), the EMA (European Medicines Agency), and health ministries in some countries have either suspended, limited, or completely stopped the use of these drugs. It means that those who already have specific illnesses, such the ones listed below, are more likely to get sick.

 

Blood pressure that is too high
Used to smoke
Having diabetes and being overweight
Problems with blood clotting that run in families

 

 

Things to Be Aware Of
If you’ve taken any medicine lately and have any of the following symptoms, you should see a doctor immediately away:

Sudden pain in the chest.
Problems with breathing Swelling in the arms or legs that doesn’t seem to have a reason
A bad headache or trouble seeing
A fast heartbeat or pulse that isn’t steady

Time is highly important when dealing with clot-related events. Even if you’re not sure, it’s best to see a doctor than to disregard these warning signs.

 

 

If you are taking these drugs, what should you do?

 

 

Unless your doctor tells you to, don’t stop taking your medicine all at once. If you stop without support, things could get worse.
Ask your doctor about different treatments or a risk assessment.

Your local health department or international health organizations are good places to get information.

Please let your country’s health authority know about any bad affects you have.

Paying attention can save your life or someone else’s. Health systems rely on people being aware and reporting problems swiftly to keep people safe.
