Well, I am not here to attach you about cobroxin, I do however wish to give my experience and let that speak for itself. About a year ago I had a nasty gout flareup and it was getting the best of me, the pain in my right hand was so bad that I couldn’t use it, could not put any weight on it, I couldn’t do nothing, and because I am diabetic I did not want to take the usual medro dose pack of steroids because it shoots my glucose way up. I was very sceptical about the product cobroxin… Read more »

Injectable Cobroxin was partially in vogue in the 1960’s as possible use in terminal Cancer patients. The thought was that it would decrease the need for narcotics in these cases. I think this was based on the case of the herpetologist in Florida that had been struck by several Cobras over the years and was losing some of his pain perception. I used Cobroxin on three terminal cancer patients. The first I judged that it decreased the need for narcotics. The second I could see no benefit. The third was equivocal. Based on my small study, I discontinued the use… Read more »
My feet do not hurt .
Vicodin did not help AT ALL.
This stuff WORKS.
Period.
No one is more of a skeptic than me when it comes to homeopathic claims but I’ve been using cobroxin since July 2011 to control numbness and pain due ot a herniated disk and find it to be highly effective. Within 2 days of using the spray my numbness was almost completely gone. I’ve recommended the product to my father and brother who both have similar nerve pain related issues and they’ve had great results as well. If I stop taking the spray for a day or so the pain and numbness slowly creep back, I’ve intentionally tested it in… Read more »
Hello ,i am undergoing masters in pharmaology..I have read all discussions about cobroxin in the other blog of Mr. James….I wanted to ask why the manufacturers of it have not gone through the adequate evaluation if this product is so prominent…If it is really of that quality than they should urge to make up all scepticism in people’s minds..I think we will have to wait until they make efforts to compensate all thorough pharmacological evidences that are lacking(as per Mr. James)…Without these there is never ending arguments possible…Meanwhile individuals may use it and decide its truthfulness on their own…
I wanted to ask why the manufacturers of it have not gone through the adequate evaluation if this product is so prominent…If it is really of that quality than they should urge to make up all scepticism in people’s minds.. 1a. Expense of trials/studies, etc. 1b. Waste of money — *saying* it’s effective results in profits without the expense of trials/studies. 2. Trials/studies would kill the golden-egg-laying goose. (Can’t prove something that just ain’t so.) 3. Psudoscience has a well-aged patina of credibility among the credulous. Can you say “Creationsim?” “Earth-centric universe?” “Flat earth?” “Laetrile?” ad infinitum. 4. Why go… Read more »
hi, i really enjoy yr sites. i’ve read some of yr “debates” w others like the one w fred hann at jpfitness forum and am impressed at the way u argue-logical, research based and w/o all the name calling. i’ve learnt alot fr u, esp. on how to spot fallacies in arguments. so thks and keep it up!
Thank you, imee!
Argh, quackery. Great article Mr. Krieger! Again, the calories don’t matter as long as X avoid certain nutrient which you explained very well on GCBC review. Hoping for the next part though… Keep up the good work.
My comments are not spam. I’m just stating that your blog posts focus on how Cobroxin doesn’t work, but there are now countless claims everywhere from people that share their positive experiences with Cobroxin. So who’s right? You or the product users? My money is with the actual product users.
My comments are not spam Comments like the one you left at 11:49 certainly are spam, and will be treated as such. I’m just stating that your blog posts focus on how Cobroxin doesn’t work You’ve now created a strawman. I never said Cobroxin “doesnt’ work”. I said there is no evidence that its effects are anything beyond a placebo effect. Even placebos provide pain relief. Until there is a well designed double-blind, placebo controlled trial published in a peer-reviewed journal (preferably a reputable one and not an obscure Chinese journal), then you have no basis to claim that Cobroxin’s… Read more »
Wow, you’re so focused on Cobroxin. Amazing. Did they push you down the stairs or something? Or are they proving you wrong about your theories? Probably the latter.
Wow, you’re so focused on Cobroxin You seem very focused on my blog with all of the spam comments you are leaving. Did they push you down the stairs or something? Or are they proving you wrong about your theories? Probably the latter. A false dichotomy. Of course, if you think I’ve been proven wrong, why don’t you show where? You still haven’t provided anything refuting anything I’ve said in any of my posts. Until you can come back and actually provide some evidence, rather than spamming my blog with useless and empty comments, your comments will be directed to… Read more »
