Hi.
thanks for the question,
There is no much benefit caused due to change of mediciine as both serve the same purpose.jointace has dicerin and glucosamine whereas rejoint has glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate. If there is anything that's going to make a difference , its quadriceps exercises. Pls force her to do these exercises very sincerely. This will definitely make her feel better.
