Somebody recommended me to start using N-acetyl glucosamine because I have strictures. I was just wondering if anybody has had any luck with N-acetyl glucosamine and strictures? And do I need a prescription from the doctor and is it taken orally?

Thanks :)

N-A-G is a supplement you can get in health food stores, or on-line.  I've not heard it being used for strictures.  It's my understanding it may help decrease symptoms of IBD (may help protect the gut lining) and osteoarthritis.  I've taken it for about a year now, but I'm on a number of other supplements and meds, so ... who knows.  Here's more info:  http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientmono-619-N-ACETYL%20GLUCOSAMINE.aspx?activeIngredientId=619&activeIngredientName=N-ACETYL%20GLUCOSAMINE.

I see this post was in 2012 and I am wondering if you had any luck with N-acetyl glucosamine for strictures. I am having the same trouble and will try anything. Any advice you can give, I would appreciate it.
