Q10 is getting a lot of publicity, but mainly from manufacturers, suppliers etc. It would be best to check interactions with your pharmacist or medic.

Thanks for your response Kristin. However, I have taken this supplement for many years and in fact I did ask gp but he didnt seem to know what I was talking about!

Hi, my husband is on Lisinopril which is the same category of drug as Ramipril and takes Q10 in the form of Ubiquinol. No interactions and his GP and Cardiologist are both aware.

Hi SharThanks for your response. I did check with pharmacist and she said was ok. I’ve always taken CQ10 and never had problem but now my bp is bit high I believe because I contracted Covid earlier in year, I’m on bp medication!
