== Safety and Side Effects ==
The safety profile of CoQ10 is notably benign, with it being well-tolerated even at high doses. It does not induce serious adverse effects in either humans or experimental animals. Minor side effects may include stomach upset, loss of appetite, nausea, and headaches. CoQ10's interaction with various medications, such as blood thinners and chemotherapy drugs, necessitates a consultation with a healthcare professional before beginning supplementation {{pmid|35199552}}.

== Current Research and Perspectives ==
The latest research aims to summarize the clinical and experimental effects of CoQ10 supplementation, particularly in neurological diseases. Although CoQ10 supplementation has shown promise in animal models, its efficacy in human diseases such as Parkinson’s disease can be inconsistent, and its effectiveness in conditions like Friedreich’s ataxia or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis remains unclear. Nevertheless, recommending CoQ10 as an adjunct to conventional therapy may be reasonable in certain cases {{pmid|35199552}}.
