I took it persistently for six months (knees and recently shoulders), the first two months one per day (as it said) until I saw the genuine label underneath that it requires up to three per day. Then I took three per day persistently to make sure I didn’t quit too soon and rush to conclusions. The result was that I got heartburn and heaviness in my stomach. I don’t understand those who notice improvement from the third day!!!! Also, those who take other medications at the same time or do physiotherapy or special programs or have had surgery shouldn’t comment... it’s obvious there will be improvement, besides the fact that it’s silly, it also confuses people. Naturally, for psychological reasons, these things work with positive results, as long as there is no illness. I have tried other major brands and they had the same result, 0 out of 0, zero! Only pharmaceutical anti-inflammatories work, but you can’t take them all the time.

Clearly from personal experience!!!
If you take 3 pills daily as the instructions say, it helps a lot. I have intra-articular swelling in my wrist from a fall with the motorcycle, when I get tired it hurts a lot. I just started the pills and from the third day I felt a difference.
My father also started them, who has arthritis, he feels much better but after a few days when he finished the pills, the pain started again.

In combination with diet & exercise, it helped strengthen the cartilage at least in my case (chondropathy in the knees and epicondylitis)

In diagnosed osteoarthritis crises, I don't think it does anything, like any other, I believe that for me the reasons I continue and buy these various things, curcumin, etc.... Unfortunately, movatec (anti-inflammatory) acted immediately again, but you can't take them continuously.

I started taking them due to knee pain I had from exercise and strain. It has been the third month that I have been taking them (3 a day) and, as much as I hoped to see a difference, I don't feel they have helped particularly with anything. I don't know if more time is needed for them to work and of course every body is different. But I think that, given their high price, I will not continue taking them since the results are not noticeable.

I took it for 2 months upon the recommendation of the orthopedic (1 pill daily) for the bone edema I had in my hip from a fracture. To be honest, I don't know how it acted and if it actually helped; in any case, I am in the 3rd month and the discomfort/sharp pain from the edema has decreased a lot. I will continue taking it for another month and we'll see.

Attention where you buy from!!!! From the store I bought it, they sent me a product that did not have the brand name (metaflex) on the label! I contacted them and they simply told me that the company changed the packaging. I eventually went and got it from somewhere else (physical store) where the brand name was written on the packaging

Very good supplement!! I take it for my mother who has osteoarthritis and her knees hurt. As long as she takes them and for a while afterwards, she doesn't hurt!!

I saw quite good results regarding my operated knees (cruciate ligament in both), but when they sell them for 35 euros in Greece and 23 euros abroad, it infuriates you.

It definitely doesn't work wonders, but it caught my attention much more than the osteoflex plus (meniscus and dislocated shoulder). Very difficult to swallow, I was dissolving them and drinking them in water even though they have a carpet-like taste

I have bought two bottles so far and have been using it for almost 4 months. There is absolutely no difference in the problem with the tendons in the shoulders, it remains the same, absolutely no difference

It was recommended by an orthopedic doctor because I have some pain in my knees and Achilles tendon, and I have seen improvement in one week with one pill daily (okay, quite expensive hence the 4 stars)

It helped me with a mild meniscus tear, a small tear in the bag that holds the lubricant in the knee. Serious stuff.

After a doctor's recommendation, I took 2 capsules daily along with some stretching exercises. 2 months and boom!

The leg fully recovered without arthroscopy or any surgery.

I continued taking them alongside gym workouts, and I had no injuries. From me, it's 100/100, 5 stars.

PS. If someone taking them doesn't see any improvement within a month, it's good to visit a doctor or even another doctor for a second opinion, in case something is stuck and requires treatment

I bought it for arthritis in my shoulder and a 4mm tendon tear. I have been taking it for 2 months now and I haven't seen any improvement, not even 2%

Just bought it, we'll see. I ate it with a bite of bread with butter that I had chewed before and then I put the pill in between and didn't feel anything. This is for those who have difficulty swallowing.

The label on top in Greek recommends not exceeding one capsule daily. Upon opening the label, the factory label in English is revealed, which states three capsules daily. The recommendation from an orthopedic specialist for a 42-year-old man with a sore shoulder from the gym is two capsules. And that there will be no improvement even if you take more in a month.

It is a powerful vitamin for any musculoskeletal injury problem. When my brother had a serious foot surgery, I took it and used it myself to see what it is about and it helped me with my own leg issues. It works miracles as long as we have common sense and basic understanding. For example, if you are overweight and have joint problems, it will help you too, but you will need to lose weight. When I first took it, I felt improvement in the two areas where I had problems after a few weeks. Unfortunately, after a while of using it, I developed an allergy and had to stop.

After using it for just 3 weeks, the difference was already noticeable. The pain in my knee joints specifically decreased significantly. I believe it does what it promises

I use it for my knees and it is effective. When there is intense discomfort, I use it for a month simultaneously with the 7 from the same company.

I have been using them for 65 days and I haven't seen any difference or improvement in my arthritis problems. What I have noticed and really dislike is that they have a very strong smell!!!!!!! I would not choose them again, I will try another company. It's a shame for the reviews and the company's reputation, it has such a strong odor that disgusts me and makes me nauseous

After 2 months of use and countless glasses of water, my hips don't hurt as much and I can finally sleep at night, much better than before...

It helps to a degree of total therapy after 6-8 months (first improvement). It improved me tremendously in my right knee with patellar chondromalacia to the point where I limped a few days a year. It also helped my mother a lot with osteoarthritis in her left knee, which also caused her to limp. Whoever believes it should try it with patience. I did not undergo any other treatment simultaneously and I have to say that maybe I was helped from elsewhere. The pill is quite large and somewhat difficult to swallow.

I have a problem in one knee with cartilage, the doctor told me to take this supplement for 3 months along with physiotherapy if I have a lot of pain, but I ended up only taking the supplement. My job is being a waiter, so I run kilometers every day. I started taking the supplement when I was working and I started to see improvements in my knee within two months. I have another one as well. If I didn't strain my leg at work, maybe I would have seen results faster. Take it, it's worth it. I also did check-up exams before and after taking the supplement, everything is fine, it didn't affect me in any way. I will choose Solgar again!

I bought it for 3 months and I didn't see any difference at all.
For me, it didn't work for knee problems, it didn't help with arthritis!

Do not throw your money on similar products. I have bought large quantities for months and the result is minimal. This specific one, like most products, claims to contain everything but there is no corresponding result according to the users. It is better to invest in a physical therapy set with this money.

I have been using it for about a year (one capsule per day) - recommended by an orthopedic doctor - and it brings results. Compared to Solgar's No 7, I find it much better. If combined with exercise, the results are also better and faster. I have grade 4 osteoarthritis in my knee and now I can walk and exercise normally without any discomfort.

Some patience is needed at the beginning (at least one month without noticeable improvement). The problems for me are two: that it is expensive and that it needs to be accompanied by plenty of water (at least 1-2 glasses), otherwise after a while there may be stomach issues.

I have been using it for years and it is excellent although somewhat expensive... It takes some time to work and see results.

I couldn't swallow it !!!!!!!
I don't know if it works or not !
It smells TERRIBLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!
The size is HUGE !!!!!!!
I cut it into 2 and 3 pieces but it was worse because it got stuck in my throat !!!!
How difficult is it to make smaller pills and take 2 or 3 together ;;;;;;;;;;
ENOUGH ALREADY !!!!!!!
It's also very expensive !!!!!!!
