User Reviews for hyaluronic acid

I have less knee and shoulder pain which means I sleep so much better. The neuropathy in my lower legs and feet seem to be less problematic. I am 80 years old and in reasonably good health.

This stuff is amazing. I take this at night when I have a lot of arthritic pain or muscle soreness. I have been able to stop taking one of the 2 prescriptions for arthritis per my rheumatologist.

Bought this off Amazon ca, Cant give it a rating as my husband took ONE pill and had a terrible allergic reaction to it and actually was vomiting, couldnt work at all, He cant take Advil as he has a bad reaction too

I bought Umary and found it to be a miracle drug for my arthritis. Pain was resolved after first day. Unfortunately, it seems I'm one of few who experience constipation from taking this pill, along with swelling, bloating of my stomach. So I have had to stop taking it. Now I guess I'll have to return to a prescription medication for my pain control.

After hearing from two friends (one: mid-80s and the other mid-70s) I tried the 850mg UMARY (actually only 120mg of Hyaluronic Acid and the balance - glucosamine, chondroitin, turmeric and a few other miscellaneous benign ingredients). My issues are no cartilage at all in one knee and mild arthritis in both wrists. I have been completely pain free in both wrists and less noisy in my knee. I cannot think of a negative. I might recommend taking half the tablet in the am and the other half in the pm. When I took the full tablet in the morning, it seemed to impede urination for longer than normal. Perhaps all that fluid was accumulating in, and lubricating, my joints so not available for evacuation.Read More Read Less

This is a totally independent review and my personal experience taking Hyaluronic acid - I was researching Hyaluronic acid as a serum for my face when I came across a couple of items mentioning that it could be taken as a supplement for joint pain. I'm in my sixties and 2yrs ago had a total knee replacement due to arthritis and since then have been taking EVERY supplement available to try and reduce the pain in my other knee because going through another knee operation is something I'm not prepared to do just yet. When I read that Hyaluronic acid can be taken for joint pain I though what have I got to lose - after about three days of starting it I noticed that I was able to move more freely without much pain and having to resort to taking Ibuprofen at least two to three times a week - I thought that It was just a coincidence and for some reason the pain wasn't as bad as usual but it wouldn't last and I'd be back on the pain killers within a week, its been two months now and I'm an absolutely ecstatic because I'm am virtually pain free and haven't had to take any pain killers for the last month, only problem is that it states on the bottle that it shouldn't be taken for longer than 3 months - I contacted the company and asked why this is a recommendation and they said that because taking it as a supplement is new and not enough trials have been done to see if there are any adverse effects over a longer period. There is NO WAY I'm stopping and going back to taking horrible pain killers that definitely are no good for you, I'll do the trial for them and let them know if there are any adverse effects but for now I wake up every day expecting that the pain will return and am over joyed when the end of the day comes and I still have no pain - this for me has been a miracle supplement!Read More Read Less

This supplement gave me anxiety - a feeling of unease. I noticed someone else here posted something similar.

I tried a hyaluronic acid supplement with powdered liposomes by a brand called Nadiol.  Apparently the powdered liposomes help to increase the bioavailability of the Hyaluronic Acid.  Overall I found it worked quite well, I did notice that my joints felt softer and agile while exercising. I now take it in cycles along with a number of other products.

I was diagnosed with OA in both knees last month, had few physiotherapy session and had my first HA last week Still I can say there is improvement Some people say it may take weeks to have the HA injection effect

So I started taking supplement that contains Hyaluronic Acid (HA), and after few days I have had extreme Acid Reflux. In the past I have had some acid reflux but not as severe as after taking this supplement. Having said that, I have been taking the morning (not much food on my stomach). So I will take lower dose and in the evening instead. So Be cautious it could have some acid reflux as a side effect. I haven’t read anywhere about this.

I take 40 mg of lasix daily for my BP…does wonderful for BP….but did cause hair loss, brittle, splitting nails…I upped my Hyaluronic acid supplement from 1 tab 250 mg to 2 tablets…no more nails splitting, hair loss significantly less…it’s for me for sure

Better than antibiotics

Mine was an injection in the knee which many people do not like but I had instant relief. I could not bend my knee without great pain and was limping and throwing my back out. In short very miserable. Relief 1st shot of three needed. Instant relief.

In a cream with HA caused my ankles to swell and caused my left thumb joint to swell. I tried the same cream two times about one year apart,\. The same ankles swell (puffed) and left thumb came back again.

This stuff is AMAZING!!! I started taking this 3 days ago. I take 2 pills which equates to about 150 mg. My skin is unbelievably soft and supple. I have eczema and have noticed huge improvement within 24 hrs even and getting better and better each day. Trust me, this stuff is amazing. But please read articles online. If you've ever had cancer or kidney damage, do not take. This stuff feeds cancer cells.

After about 2 weeks of taking capsules orally I no longer have knee pain. If I stop taking it the pain returns after a week or two.

I use Hylo Forte eye drops for pretty severe dry eye. I've tried lots of different eye drops and these are the best for effectiveness and lack of irritation.

Taking oralvisc x 6 weeks. Joint pain is greatly reduced and have loads more energy

It has placebo effects as far as aging goes.

Hyaluronan injections have been a miracle for me. I have severe osteoarthritis in one knee and was told five years ago by three different orthopedists that total knee replacement was my only effective option. But one other surgeon suggested that I at least try hyaluronan injections as they have proven beneficial for a minority of patient. I have since received an injection every six months (originally Synvisc-One and more recently Monovisc) and I am virtually pain-free despite speed walking 10-15 miles per week. I have learned that the skill of the physician administering the injection is paramount as getting the syringe into the synovial capsule demands both experience and prior examination of a recent imaging of the joint. I realize this treatment will not stave off surgery indefinitely; but, knee replacement is a rapidly advancing technology (makoplasty as an example) and if hyaluronan injections can buy my a few more years than maybe by then knee replacement will have advanced to where a single surgery can last a lifetime.Read More Read Less
