Class Action.org is currently investigating claims of rhabdomyolysis, a life-threatening form of muscle damage, which has been linked to Zocor (80mg), the generic simvastatin (80mg) and Vytorin 10/80. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis after taking an 80mg dosage of this cholesterol-lowering drug, visit Class Action.org today to explore your legal rights and find out whether you are eligible to participate in a
Zocor lawsuit.
Although Zocor has previously been linked to a less severe form of muscle injury known as myopathy, the FDA released a new warning in March 2010 highlighting the increased risk of rhabdomyolysis in patients taking the highest approved dose of the drug, which is 80mg. Rhabdomyolysis is a severe form of muscle damage which results in the release of muscle fiber contents into the bloodstream. Commonly referred to as “rhabdo”, this
Zocor side effect can potentially lead to kidney damage, kidney failure and death. Common symptoms of rhabdomyolysis include, but are not limited to the following: dark or red urine; muscle tenderness; muscle stiffness or aching; joint pain; weakness and fatigue; seizures; and unintentional weight gain.
If you have taken an 80mg dosage of Zocor and received a diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis, you may be able to participate in a
Zocor rhabdomyolysis lawsuit to recover financial compensation. Visit
