    I take Cosamin ASU. Recommended by my rhuematolgist. Amazon is cheapest.

    That is what I give my dog, LOL!! You can also buy it at Sam's...I'll have to compare prices. Do you take all four tablets each day?

    Hubby & I both take 2 Glucosamine w/MSM 3x/day. One of the one's from Sam's. We've been taking them for years. When we run out...I can feel the difference within a week. Eat 'em like candy!

    I have been taking glucosamine for many years. The ironic thing is that my surgeon years ago mentioned that my knees were too far gone for it to help. Ironically I followed his instructions for quite some time, until I also had to put one of my dogs on it. The vet(also a friend) suggested that I try it... if it didn't help then obviously stop taking it. I did start to take it (once to twice a day) and it did help, and quite often will remind me if I for some reason I have missed it for a few days. Now it is NOT going to rebuild the cartilage that I no longer have, but it does indeed take away some of the pain/irritation and living in a 3 story house I'm thankful for that.

    I take a glucosamine/MSM supplement (Osteo BiFlex brand, triple strength)...2 pills per day. I've been using this for 6+ years now, and I notice a difference if I stop taking them...especially in my knees.
