Have you ever taken glucosamine and did it make your eyes twitch?

Question

Several people have told me of funny eye side effects.

Answer 1

I have taken glucosamine and I have had my eyes twitch but I don't think it was related.  My eye twitching has occurred during times of stress (finals) and has not always coincided with my glucosamine supplementation.  Interestingly, I have had greater success with glucosamine now that I am taking it in a plant derived liquid form instead of from a pill.  It is part of a juice complex but I am still getting 1500mg/day and feeling even better effects now than ever before.  Here is the link where I have been getting it.  It is not my site, I am a consumer just like you!

Answer 2

yes,so i asked my doctor,he says its normal and its called "blinking"?

Answer 3

Sadly I cannot take glucosamine as I take Warfarin and the two apparently don`t mix !

Answer 4

Yes I have and no they didn't

Answer 5

I'm not sure if those people that told you that were joking or if they were all allergic to shellfish... but that's a very uncommon reaction (so uncommon that I've never heard anyone say they had it).

I've also taken Glucosamine and my eye didn't twitch at all.  ;-)
