NOW Glucosamine Chond. Ex Str 240 tabs

The NOW Glucosamine and Chondroitin Extra Strength bottle contains 240 tablets, which equals 120 servings of 2 tablets each. NOW describes the product as a high potency joint health supplement designed to support normal joint function.

NOW Extra Strength uses a glucosamine potassium sulfate complex to supply 1,500 mg of glucosamine sulfate per serving. The 1,200 mg of chondroitin sodium sulfate in each serving comes from bovine cartilage, so the tablets contain an animal-derived ingredient.

Each 2-tablet serving of NOW Glucosamine and Chondroitin Extra Strength contains 110 mg of sodium and 245 mg of potassium, with the potassium coming from potassium chloride. A serving also lists 10 calories and 2 g of total carbohydrate.

NOW Glucosamine and Chondroitin Extra Strength can be taken with food or on an empty stomach, according to the label, which suggests 2 tablets daily. Take the large tablets with 8 oz of water or another drink. Please consult your doctor before use.

Yes. NOW Glucosamine and Chondroitin Extra Strength 240 tabs contains a shellfish derivative, and NOW warns that people with a known shellfish allergy should avoid it. Read the allergen panel on the bottle as well. Please consult your doctor before use.

NOW notes that its glucosamine and chondroitin combination is also made in capsule, powder and liquid forms as alternatives to these tablets. Whichever form you choose, keep the 240 tablet bottle in a cool, dry place.
