Nutramax Laboratories Cosamin® DS Joint Health Supplement with Glucosamine & Chondroitin for Adult Men & Women, Joint Supplement, 150 Caplets

It definitely has an effect on my joints. I've been taking for years now. I am disappointed that they sell (or used to sell) a version without the manganese which is a critical nutrient and was used in the study the showed the spinal discs growing back.

Cosamin DS IS VERY EFFECTIVE & I HAVE BEEN USING IT FOR MANY YEARS.

Perfect brand for effectiveness. I’ve been taking it as a prophylactic for 15 yrs. My joints are good and no bones replaced. At age 81 ! Can’t prove it works, but why not.

Very effective. Had been taken for 15 yeras and knees are in good shape @ 72 years old

Great Product at a good price.

Cosamin is a fabulous product. It has helped tremendously with my lower back pain. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!!!

I admit to being very skeptical when it comes to these kind of OTC supplements and/or medications. I had been having hip pain and discomfort for some time, progressively getting worse. Orthopedic doctor told me I would eventually need hip replacement surgery. A family member has been a sales rep for a replacement joint manufacturer for several years now and in conversation with him he recommended I give this product a try. Not sure where he got that information from but figured he should have some inside information and what the heck it's worth a try. And to my complete surprise it has actually worked. It does not work immediately, takes several weeks to really kick in but as of the time of writing this (3 or 4 weeks in) I am in less pain and able to go about my life in a more normal manner. I do not know how it works but I can assure you it does. My doctor prescribed anti inflammatory drugs which I did not take because of blood pressure issues with them in a past experience. This Cosamin DS is not a cure all, the hip problem is still there, just much, much less, and I don't know if eventually the issue will force it's way back. The thought of having hip replacement surgery was something that scared the @#$% out of me so I am very happy with this product. Long may it last.

I have a shellfish allergy. This is the only product that I've found that's shellfish free! I LOVE that they include a scripture verse right on the bottle!

I finished the whole course and don't feel noticeably better. I work out too so maybe it does help but I'm attributing any positive health effect to my exercise regime?
