Coenzyme Q10?
Hi, I saw my neurologist this week and was told there has not been much change in my PD over the past 9 months. Good news. I take low amounts of Sinemet and Mirapex. I also take other supplements, one of them being 200mg of coenzyme Q10 for the past year. My doctor told me to take the max Q10 for PD which I guess is 1200mg. I am wondering if this is the right thing to do. From what I know, there have been one or two Q10 studies done on small groups of people with PD. Are there any more or recent studies that say Q10 slows PD? Does anyone take 1200mg of Q10 and can you say it works and is worth the expense?
