What the Science Says About the Safety and Side Effects of CoQ10
========

Studies have not reported serious side effects related to CoQ10 use.

    The most common side effects of CoQ10 include insomnia, increased liver enzymes, rashes, nausea, upper abdominal pain, dizziness, sensitivity to light, irritability, headaches, heartburn, and fatigue.

    CoQ10 should not be used by women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

    Statins may lower the levels of CoQ10 in the blood. However, it is unclear what type of health effect this may have on an individual.

    CoQ10 may make warfarin, an anticoagulant (blood thinner), less effective.
