A Boost for
Pain Relief
(HealthDayNews,1/18/04)
Alan Cowan and fellow researchers at Temple University
report that the nutritional supplement, glucosamine, used
alone, does not block pain; however, when taken in combination
with ibuprofen, it boosts pain relief. Scientists speculate
that patients may be able to reduce their risk of side-effects
by taking glucosamine to allow them to lower their ibuprofen
dosage.
