Abstract
This invention relates to a composition comprising a glucosamine material and an analgesic compound such as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and/or an opioid analgesic and its use for treatment of pain in pharmaceutical or veterinary applications. When the components of the compositions are administered within certain ratios, the analgesic efficacy of the composition is super-additive (synergistic) relative to the analgesic efficacy of the analgesic compound alone.
