The US Drug Watchdog is strongly encouraging family members or loved ones of anyone receiving a hip implant between 2002 and 2010 to ask if it was a DePuy ASR hip implant, or a DePuy Pinnacle hip implant? The group says, "There are about 180,000 recipients of the now recalled DePuy ASR, and or the DePuy Pinnacle hip implant, and we are on a mission to make certain every recipient gets identified to the best possible law firms, so they will be compensated in the event their metal-on-metal hip implant has already has failed, or might prematurely fail. At this moment only a tiny fraction of these metal on metal hip implant recipients have been identified." The DePuy ASR metal on metal hip implant was recalled in August of 2010, and the DePuy Pinnacle metal on metal hip implant is now subject to national litigation. The US Drug Watchdog believes many individuals who received a now recalled DePuy ASR hip implant, or a DePuy Pinnacle hip implant do not want to go through a painful hip replacement surgery, also called revision surgery; so as a result they do not complain. For more information about the DePuy ASR hip implant recall, or the problematic DePuy Pinnacle hip implant please call the US Drug Watchdog at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via its web site at http://USDrugWatchdog.com
The US Drug Watchdog says, "Symptoms of the recalled DePuy ASR hip implant, or the DePuy Pinnacle failure include, pain in the hip region, problems while walking or the inability to walk, swelling of the hip, general discomfort, lack of flexibility, and elevated levels of cobalt, or chromium in the hip implant recipients blood. http://USDrugWatchdog.Com
The US Drug Watchdog is the premier pharmaceutical, and medical device watchdog in the United States. The group says, "We want to make certain all DePuy ASR hip implant recipients, and all DePuy Pinnacle hip implant recipients get to attorneys that have the best record in achieving superior results for their clients. We do not want any recipient of a recalled DePuy ASR, or a DePuy Pinnacle sitting on the curb, for a disaster that was not their doing."
