Glucosamine and chondroitin have never been medically proven to have any effect on pain or on joint health. Vitamin C would do more good for joints as it is essential for the production and maintainence of connective tissue, i.e. cartilage and bone. An NSAID would be the drug of choice for pain and/or inflammation.

Do you mean the solution injected into the joint? The manufacturers claim it can delay surgery in arthritic knees for about 1-2 years depending on the severity of the disease. Haven’t come across liquid taken orally. Oral tabs usually are made from shellfish. If you are allergic to shellfish, you shouldn’t take the tabs.
