How long should one take glucosamine?

Question:
How long should one take glucosamine? Are there any breaks in the treatment? Glucosamine sulfate

Answer:

Glucosamine is a product that should ideally be used continuously, without breaks. It serves as “nutrition” for the cartilage and stimulates the production of synovial fluid. If you stop taking it or take breaks, it can no longer have this effect, and the beneficial effect will disappear as quickly as the first improvements were observed (usually within a month, although it can vary from a week to six months).

For this reason, we recommend the continuous use of glucosamine. There is no need to pause or stop the treatment after a certain period of time. Continuous use is safe: scientific studies have shown that glucosamine can be used without problems for up to three consecutive years. There have been no studies for a longer period (or perhaps the results have not yet been published), but there is no reason to assume that continuous use is unsafe.

Glucosamine has been used for over 40 years without issues by millions of people.
