Why are glucosamine tablets so large?

I don’t understand that nanaK do you mean as opposed to a glass?

Yes, exactly that.

I had to stop too because of choking but I haven't felt any difference either.

When I told my GP I was taking it he asked why!!

You could save your money and stop the glucosamine. There is very little evidence of significant benefit. I took it for about 15 years and then decided to stop, with no noticeable effect.

'Have you tried drinking from a bottle?
It might help.'

No, NanaK54 - but good idea. Even if there's no glucosamine in it!

Seriously, I was thinking about squashing the tabs and mixing with water. What a faff, though.

I have had to stop taking them for that reason.
I was in danger of choking, I tried cutting in half but still couldn’t swallow them which may have been remembering the choking sensation.
