Since taking Actos I have had swelling in feet and legs, shortness of breath and weight gain. I quit taking it for a week and some of the swelling went down and I lost about five lbs. I don't want my diabetes to get out of control but neither can I afford to gain weght.

There are actually some side effects like dry skin, dry mouth, loss of appetite, etc, caused by this medicine when it interacts with some food and some other drugs. To know more about the effects and interactions visit http://www.internationaldrugmart.com/actos.html
