cosamin DS vs cosamin DS double strength

I asked the same question. I think it is a difference in packaging. I think this is the same product. While taking that I was still having problems with pain in my thumbs so I was having problems handspinning and knitting. My doctor suggested I switch to glucosamine sulfate and that has resulted in a huge improvement. I can now knit or handspin for as long as I want without pain. I hope this helps you.

Hi. I'm not sure but I think the DS stands for double strength. Maybe someone just typed something wrong

I've been taking it since it came on the market and like most things, I think it works and therefore am afraid to stop taking it.

I believe ds means double strength - but when my order of the double strength arrived, I realized they were of the same potency as the regular strength. Just a marketing ploy.

From the manufacturer's web site (http://www.nutramaxlabs.com/your-health-home/joint-health/cosamin-ds), each serving (3 capsules) contains the following: Sodium (105 mg), Carbohydrates (1.5 g), Vitamin C from Manganese Ascorbate (6 mg), Manganese from Manganese Ascorbate (1 mg), Glucosamine Hydrochloride 99% (1.5 g), Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate containing approximately 8% moisture (1.2 g).

I didn't realize there was a difference! I just checked my jar of unscented, and it doesn't say "Strong" anywhere on it like it shows in the picture. Hope that helps.

The regular I think is 450? I know Rogiscal has about 450 as well, so the extra 25mg is professional I guess.

I can't answer for the discrepancy. However, the meter I use is pre-2010 which should meet either of the descriptions. I continued to test both with these Unistrips right next to the One Touch test strips and every time Unistrip was 30+ points higher using the same blood within seconds of each other. I finally discarded the box and I guess I will have to eat the price of the second box since I bought two boxes of fifty.

I struggled with this too. Did find this very helpful article: http://www.enzymeessentials.com/blog/comparing-digestive-enzyme-products/ which explains the difference in measurements and how to convert.

This is purely my opinion, but I find that the dual-compound pads work well for me when the road is a mixture of wet and dry. For example during the spring when you have dry patches and wet patched, the dual compound work better for me than the salmon pads. That having been said, I am a heavy rider (230 pounds) so I need all of the braking force I can get. Given that I have to stop all of that weight, I can tell the difference between all-black (great on dry roads), all-salmon (excellent in the wet), and dual-compound pads. Lighter riders or those who are casual riders may not notice that difference.

I can't clarify your question "which is stronger and has a longer life", unfortunately I don't own the other and have no way to answer your question. I can only say that I am very happy with this product, both my dogs wear one 24/7 and after almost one year the tags are totally fine. I am so happy with this Dynotag that I have also bought it as gifts and have spread the word about it with friend and coworkers.

The PS is 2X as strong as the N formula. Thus, as you add tablets to your daily dosage, you have to take less tabs. The PS makes it not only more convenent, but less fillling should an individual need a higher dose to achieve results; and then adjusting downward to the least amount while still achieving the results that you need.

I was told that plus is stronger. Do not have much information other than that.

I am a 78 year old woman who has had trouble swallowing other products. i use the Cosamin DS because they slide down easily. I haven't tried opening them.

Further to my last comments. There are different strength available. The one I originally received from my dentist was the overnight formula. The one I purchased afterwards was stronger, thus the two-hour directive.

Not familiar with DS but this product includes Turmeric and I have found it to be very effective. I am quite happy with how I feel taking this particular product and I have tried several.

My 13 year old 22 pound, who is a tall but correct weight, miniature poodle, came to me as a two year old with noticeable hip pain and limp. X-rays showed the problem. He has been taking a combo glucosamine/chondroiten supplement since then, and rarely shows any hip problem. About two years ago I switched to the Cosequin DS plus MSM at the vet's recommendation. He seems to be doing even better, though two years older. He loves the taste, and the texture is easy for him to chew.

Sorry for responding late but I was out of town. I'm not an expert on Bayer Breeze 2 glucometers and test strips. My understanding is that Ascencia Breeze 2 test strips are designed for use with the Ascencia Breeze 2 glucometers.
