I have been taking Glucosamine now for six months with no results.

Does anyone know how long it takes to work ?

I got results within a couple of weeks, quite fast from what the literature
says to expect. But only for the OA in my knees. No relief from the RA with
Glucosamine. I also take it in combo with Chondroitin and MSM (that's how
the pill I purchase is formulated, but I hear that's the most effective
combo).

I've heard some people say they really didn't notice a difference until they
stopped the medication and their pain increased suddenly.

Check your dose. If you are not taking 1500 mg twice a day (and some advise
50% more if you weigh more than 200 lbs. I do not take additional despite
that advise), you are under dosing.
