Product summary
The only lipid-soluble endogenously synthesized antioxidant, CoQ10 (ubiquinone) has well established roles as a free radical scavenger in both mitochondrial and lipid membranes, as an electron carrier essential to cellular respiration and ATP production, and it has recently been shown to influence gene expression.
Given the central role of CoQ10 in mitochondrial function and cellular antioxidant protection, its clinical applications are extensive. Just a few of the many health conditions associated with requiring supplemental CoQ10 to boost levels are: general antioxidant support, cardiovascular disease (high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, cardiomyopathy, protection during cardiac surgery, high cholesterol being treated by drugs, especially statins), migraine headaches, male infertility, Alzheimer’s (prevention) and Parkinson’s disease (prevention and treatment), and macular degeneration.
The reduced form of CoQ10, ubiquinol, has emerged as a more effective therapy for increasing plasma levels of CoQ10 than most forms of ubiquinone, due to its increased solubility.

Drug Interactions
Although existing evidence has not found an interaction, CoQ10 resembles vitamin K structurally, potentially interfering with the anticoagulant warfarin. Close monitoring of the INR is recommended with CoQ10 introduction in these patients. No other negative drug interactions are known for CoQ10, though a number of medications are thought to interfere with CoQ10 synthesis or function in the body, including statin medications, tricyclic antidepressants and oral hypoglycemic agents.
