Since there are no known food, drug, or supplement interactions with either SAM-e or glucosamine, SAM-e and glucosamine are particularly well suited to the geriatric population, who may be taking several concomitant medications. It should be noted that there is a possible link between glucosamine and insulin resistance. Therefore, diabetic patients taking SAM-e plus glucosamine should monitor their blood glucose levels carefully.
