This review is from: Kirkland Signature Extra Strength Glucosamine Hci 1500mg with Msm 1500mg, 375-Count (Health and Beauty)

I discovered the benefits of glucosamine and chondroitin, (GC) years ago when arthritis in my knees was making pain a daily occurrence. Pain killers and other forms of arthritis formulas had minimal success, or at least just gave me very temporary relief. I started out using name brands of GC like Osteo Biflex or Move Free, but quickly realized that you could do much better price wise by sticking with store or generic brands. I have never bought GC of any kind online before, since it seems that GC products of all strengths and kinds go on sale on a two for one basis all the time. Even with Amazons free shipping and savings on sales tax it was never worth it. Then I discovered this Kirkland brand that beats all the two for one deals locally here. Anyone that is familiar with GC knows that there are all different kinds, (making it a real pain to choose at first). There is regular, double and triple strength, and GC with MSN, another compound proven to be effective for arthritic pain. It's easy to assume with no other real knowledge of this stuff that the triple strength GC with MSN has to be giving you all that there is in one of these formulas, and up till recently that was all I took. I decided to try this Kirkland brand with the potent dose of glucosamine and MSN in place of the chondroitin strictly based on the price of it. Even with the two for one store brand deals thrown in this formula is the best deal around for the number you get and the dosage. Even though I was reluctant to try this because of the absence of chondroitin, I am happy to report that I have noticed no difference whatsoever in using the Kirkland formula. Its been some time indeed since I have felt any pain in my knees from arthritis thanks to using some form of GC, so any return of pain would have signaled to me that this formula minus the chondroitin was not up to par with the rest. But that has not been the case at all. This Kirkland blend with the hefty dose of both glucosamine and MSN is working very well on both my pain and my wallet. I plan on sticking to it for as long as it continues to be effective, and at a bargain price...

In conclusion, if you already take some form of GC and MSN, or any combo/strength thereof, I would suggest trying this blend if money is an object, like it is with most of us. I am having great continued success with this Kirkland brand as I have all along with others. And one last thing, some other reviewers here have made it a point to make it understood that you need to take 2 tablets to reach the total dosage advertised. Personally I have never taken any brand of GC that didn't require a two tablet dose daily to get what they promise. The Kirkland product is no different in that sense. I suggest trying this blend and judging it strictly on the merits of how it works for you. For as a bargain, its certainly one of the best around, if not the very best....

5.0 out of 5 stars Dogs!, January 10, 2010

I am a professional dog walker in Northern California. One of my client's vets recommended this product a couple years ago for her aging Chocolate labs.. Within 2 weeks, the Chocolate labs were NEW DOGS, no limping, no stress, no PAIN, NO KIDDING! I began using it with my own dog and have since recommended to many of my clients with HUGE success! Why pay vet costs for a glucosamine blend that doesn't work even half as well??? I will NEVER stop giving it to my dog nor will I ever stop recommending it to my clients. It is AMAZING! Thank you Kirkland!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Updated product; works fine, January 9, 2010

This product was recommended by several sources due to the MSM additive in place of chondroitin. There are no apparent side effects and it seems to help, especially for my knees. The price is reasonable considering quantity, quality, and effects.
