Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product contains Coenzyme Q-10 100 mg, but the critical data available applies to the ingredient Calcium, not Coenzyme Q-10. Based on the provided data, we cannot make a specific assessment for Coenzyme Q-10. For general supplement safety, FDA has received 592059 total adverse event reports across all supplements [FDA data].
How it works
Data for how Coenzyme Q-10 works is not available. However, the provided data on Calcium describes its mechanism as supporting bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS]. You should not assume Coenzyme Q-10 works the same way.
Safety profile
Data for the safety profile of Coenzyme Q-10 is not available. For the ingredient Calcium, some research suggests high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High calcium levels can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Our recommendation is limited by the data provided. Data for Coenzyme Q-10 is not available. If you are taking this product and are also taking medications, be aware that Calcium can reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Consult your doctor or a clinical pharmacist for personalized advice.
