It might be that Orthopedic Analysis doesn't have a doctor on staff and thus can't give medical advice. Or, they've been ordered by their lawyer(s) to not offer such advice.

I didn't research the Activ-L so this is likely to be 90% my opinion with 10% fact but often the pure titanium powder is added to produce a hydroxyapatite surface which bonds well to bone. That said, there's a potential for titanium ions to go into your system from it. I'd suggest panel #2 would be a wiser choice. It's very rare to react to titanium but there have been other posters who did.
