Re: Adaquan and humans

["Quentin Llop" <qhll@eznet.net>]

Cosamin is sold only thru healthcare 'professionals'.  Any one of them,
perhaps even your pharmacist,  can order it for you, your horse or your dog,
as it is non-perscription.  One client has been using it for several years
for a 12 yr lab with moderate to severe hip dysplasia and comes now only
rarely for acupuncture treatments.    People start with three a day and then
reduce after a month to two per.  There are also generics that we have not
tried.
        Adequan is glucosamine only.  Libby likes the benefits of a generic
for her horse.  Cosamin products are a mix with chondroitin.  The
manufacturers have done real research and they work.
