A member asked:

Is it safe to take glucosamine daily and how much is recommended for a 54 year old woman on no other medications?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You can take it : Usually the dose is about 1500mg a day. I cannot promise you it will help you at all.i'm uncertain what you're taking her for but you can discuss this with your physician. You need a correct diagnosis before you start any type of therapy, even therapy that doesn't work
