User Reviews for devil's claw

I took Devil's Claw and it worked great in a couple days. No more stiffness getting out of bed in the morning or when getting out of the car. I will take it until it doesn't work for me any more. I am only 55 so I hope it works for 10 years :)

pinched nerve and athritis relief

I experienced a drop in blood pressure and pulse, along with tingling in my mouth, throat, tongue and lips. Ironically, it really reduced joint swelling, but I think I had an allergic reaction to it.

I experienced relief of arthristis pain in my right knee almost immediately.

ONE COMPLAINT. 2 HOURS AFTER I TAKE IT, I GET BLURRY VISION. IS THIS NORMAL? I HAVE GLAUCOMA AND M.D. IN ONE EYE.

I started taking Devils Claw herbal Supplement for an infected tooth that was EXTREMELY painful, I'd already been maxing out doses of Excedrin and other over the counter pain meds to control my pain. Because I didnt have any insurance I had to find other inexpensive ways to handle the horrible pain I was in. I searched quite a few things and Devils Claw was one natural pain reliever and anti inflammatory that worked really well for me and it was quick. I suggest it for anyone with dental pain due to infections. Along with Clove Oil they got e through a whole month before I could afford to have the tooth removed. Read More Read Less

I decided to try this drug for osteoarthritis in my knee. After a couple of months taking only 1/2 of the manufacturer's recommended daily dose, my knee swelling and pain is gone with no apparent side effects. Stopped using it for a while when I ran out and the pain returned. Ordered it (from a Vermont outlet) and started again..pain again went away. I'm a believer in the effectiveness of this herb for simple knee osterarthritis.

Devils Claw successfully reduces the arthritic pain in my hip and knee giving me flexible movement when gardening or swimming without the effects of other painkilling drugs. eg. paracetemol

I took Devil's Claw because I needed to find a way to relieve joint pain in my hip. I had been having a hard time climbing stairs because my left hip hurt when I raised my left leg to go up the stairs to my apartment. I had been taking Boswellia through the summertime, while on a visit to my sister's in Vancouver. She had some , and I gave it a try. It helped. But after I got home I didn't take any, and my joint pains came back. So I started taking it again. It might have been helping a little, but I seemed to need more. I started taking Devil's Claw with the Boswellia. The most amazing thing was not the joint pain relief, though. Something else happened that was unexpected, but so nice, that I will keep taking Devil's Claw. My urinary incontinence completely went away, and that was only after ONE DAY- a couple of doses of 3 capsules each time. 500 mg per capsule. I've experimented, and it's just as effective with 2 caps, twice daily. I may try 1 cap twice daily. I have nine children, and this is phenomenal, to be able to walk fast, and on long walks, and NOT have any incontinence. I've had that problem for at least 15 years. I'm 55 now. I am so amazed. This has become one of my favorite herbs.Read More Read Less

I have been using an aloe gel which contains a small amount of Devil's claw for siatica. This sounds bizarre I know, but after 3 days I started feeling very sick. There is no explanation for this except that I have a very sensitive stomach caused by medication for rheumatoid arthritis over many years.I have had very extreme reactions to any medication, even that applied to the skin so I suspect that the devil's claw is the cause this time. No one but my GP believes this and I can't say I blame them. Read More Read Less
