I do not use the COSTCO generic. I was speaking of the human version of Nutramax Cosequin DS which is Cosamin DS. Cosamin DS at Costco runs about $65 for 230 capsules with a rebate -- considerably cheaper than Cosequin DS from the vet. Nancy Melone

The brand name CosaminDS (Nutramax) from Costco is the one that has a lot of studies done on it - my vet recommended it even tho it is quite a bit more expensive than the Costco generic. There usually is a $10 rebate on it if you check on the web under CosaminDS. Valerie
