Oh, this is going to be a game changer for me thinking about this more. I can't or won't take a chance on backing up. Been there and very painful. So wish I had thought of this before I ordered but I'll consider using some in my topicals and mix it in and rub on joints. Good thing I didn't spend a lot. I have some tylenol 3 that I can't take so break these up in my topicals and same for Mobic which I can't take. Too bad. Thanks all. C
