Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / April 2005Glucosamine Sulfate question----
Hi-- My Dr told me to start taking Glucosamine Sulfate at 1500 mg/day, then later possibly go up to 3000 mg/day. I've seen so much that is Glucosamine and Chondrotin (sp?) but nothing on just Glucosamine Sulfate. Anyone know much about the difference between the two? Could it be that he chose the sulfate because I'm diabetic on pills and Insulin, on Plavis, heart risk 40% ejection rate, or carotid 60 % blockage? Is there some counter-indication involved? Thanks--- Ron I have had two doctors say that the Chrondrotin will do nothing for you so maybe that is why he is not using it, but this is just a guess.

Ron, there's a pretty objective and informative Web page about glucosamine, put together by a man who used to be a regular in this group and in alt.support.arthritis. http://home.gci.net/~cushman4/oa-gcs.htm If you still have questions after you've checked Cush's site post back in alt.support.arthritis, where you'll find more eyes watching posts than in this group. Ron, here is more information on this subject. Glucosamine HCL vs. Glucosamine Sulpha http://rmbarry.com/research/glucosamine.html Brenda |
