IB tablets are simply tablets. The caplets are gelatin capsules with the ibuprofen grains inside. They have identical strength and function. Some people prefer the caplets, if the tablets bother their stomachs, especially if they need to take them frequently/daily for arthritis, etc.

I worked in the hospital for many years, on the medical unit. That was the brand they always used and I felt it must be the best. I have been using it without any side effects. We know some off brands of medicine are contaminated with metals.

The "name"brand Bifen IT worked great for me 4 roaches.The masterline generic that claims to be the same did not work well at all.Both are sold here.Just make sure you buy the red label Bifen IT,you will be satisfied.

I use it for my osteoarthritis on my knee.It helps a bit. So I don't take my NSAID when I use the Penetrex.My doctor said do not take both the drug and the topic ointment as they go to the blood stream the same time.(My doctor prescribed Voltaren).I haven't tried the Voltaren yet.Wait till the Penetrx is used up.On the Penetrex's instruction it says also for people with plantar fasciitis.

While I have not and would not use the "Bone Up" formula, neither would I recommend purchasing Jarrow's MK-7. The "Bone-Up" formula not only has a small amount of MK-7, but the calcium source is not really very good and you have to take from 3-9 (depending on the formula) capsules/tablets a day. My personal commendation would be to get a good Calcium/D3 combo that provides at least 1,000 mg/IUs that you take 1 tablet once or twice a day. I use a Citracal formula, but you need to look for calcium citrate or calcium carbonate as they are more easily absorbed. If you want to take MK-7, you should know that it is important the manufacturer uses a quality "carrier" oil such as olive oil. The Jarrow brand uses evening primrose oil and soybean oil, which do not bind with MK-7 sufficiently. I'm speaking from experience. When I first started using MK-7, I used the Nutrigold brand. It was out of stock when I needed to re-order, so I ordered the Jarrow brand. I noticed the difference within a week. I now use Life Extension's Super K formula. Both the Nutrigold and Life Extension use olive oil as the carrier, both are currently in stock, and you take only one capsule daily. I'm sorry my answer is so long, but I believe in clarifying the reasons I have for saying yes or no on a product. If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Good luck.

You are right. Jarrow has changed the formulation of the Ultra Bone-Up. I called and spoke to a representative who stated that the glucosamine, MSM and curcumin amounts were not therapeutic amounts and therefore have been removed for other ingredients. I suggest you call also to get a better understanding. I now take a separate glucosamine, MSM and condroitin pill.

It works for me. Not sure if it will work for everyone. I started off using it with chondroitin and MSM.. Have used about 3 brands without chondroitin and they all seem to work about the same.. I take one pill a day for my maintenance dose. Otherwise my half-metal ankle starts hurting a lot..

In my experience the IB is definitely heartier than GB. Barry's is probably the most robust IB I've found with possible exception of the old Trader Joe's IB (which has now changed).

B complex is just a mixture of the B vitamins. It's all up to you whatever you want to take.

Have no idea, but blue bonnet chelated iron does not cause constipation like other brands

I mix it with something called Joint Juice. You can buy it in cases from Costco, or from places like Walgreens in some areas. It is much easier to drink, plus the joint juice has chondroitin/glucosine which helps your body's joints!

I would recommend the Vitamineral Earth rather than the Macaforce. Earth probably has more ingredients that help with inflammation.

I don 't know. I have to use what works in my stomach. It does not hurt my stomach.

The pills are probably comparable to most glucosamine-chondroitin and calcium supplement pills.Sounds as if you'd probably have some problems with it. Maybe you could open the capsulesand stir the contents into a glass of water?

Hi Mary. I don't know what IU's are and I don't see anything re: it on the bottle. You might want to call them direct and ask. They are super nice and have great customer service!!

For me, it works the same. Although I have not compared side/side for quite awhile, the last time I did the ingredients were the same.
