Guest guest Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Hi, <<What form of CoQ10 do you take? I used to take a sublingual tablet--can't remember the no. of mg. It seemed to help, but was expensive and I stopped taking it. I've never had Herx reactions from anything I took.. >> I am taking softgetls now. I started with a sublingual form that had to be prescription compounded. (Blue Cross had a contract to pay for prescription drugs, but they didn't pay for this or for a couple of others... rant available :-) ) Then I used the " chewable " form, but held it under my tongue to make it like sublingual. That went off the market I think - anyhow, softgels are cheaper and seem to be as effective. I never had a Herx from anything - prescription or supplement - up until I got onto the anti-Lyme antibiotics & antifungal. Even other antibiotics combined with the antifungal did not give me a reaction. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Hi, I get most of my stuff from Vitanet <vitanet.com> I'm pretty sure. Puritan's Pride also sometimes runns a buy-2-get-3-free deal - they have one going right now. With that deal, 5 bottles, 60 softgels (10 months at 1 a day), 200 mg Co-Q10 is only $92 + shipping. The Puritan's Pride brand is pretty dependable. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Does anyone take CoQ10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Hi , I take CoQ10. I don't know how much I am absorbing, though, because of the intestinal situation. I don't know if you are aware of this - there is a new form of CoQ10 now, ubiquinol (sp-?) It is supposed to be much better.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hi Alana, I just bought a bottle of the new form to try! I've been taking CoQ10 for about a year and like it. I actually added it because at the time I was stuck trying to get off prednisone for a few months and my blood pressure was up, probably from the pred. I'd read it might be helpful for that, so I added it in along with trying to watch the salt. It worked! I got off the pred, but continued to take it and my blood pressure is the best it's ever been. My asthma is doing much better too, so I wonder if it is helping it too! (although I've changed medications enough that it's hard to tell exactly what has made things better with the asthma.) That's why I wondered if anyone else had tried it for asthma. I also feel like I have more energy-I was really tired all the time. Although I think being tired kind of goes along with not being able to breathe well and having allergies. Thanks for the reply! > > > > > > Does anyone take CoQ10? > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Hi , That's good - it is supposed to be much better than the regular. Alana >>>>>> I just bought a bottle of the new form to try! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
