Hi,

I found a 1500 mg/day of glucosamine to start working in 2 weeks, max

effect in 6 weeks. As far as I know, theres no good studies that

adding chondroitin is good. But I have read some convincing

preliminary evidence last year, that they are synergistic to each

other, so I take both.

Hope this helps.

roper60611 - sorry, don't know your name - I took my first 500 mg glucosamine

last Thurs eve, taking 3 x per day, felt benefit Sunday ..., having really good

week. Could be coincidence I suppose.

i have taken glucosamine for some years now, having started by

trying the glucosamine prescibed by the vet for my horse (big scoop

for him, little scoop for me!) I now buy my own.

i wanted to see if it was really helping me so i took a couple of

moths break - and i sure knew it, it took about a week to kick in

after starting again.

As a veteran of the glucosamine regemine, it certainly has helped me

and I have had some relief by switching the brand of glucosamine

supplement every 2-4 months. (Switching NSAIDs around seems to help

for me too sometimes). Just a personal observation.
