CoQ10 supplement for fatigue in Lupus?

[miccika1]

Did anyone try CoQ10 supplement for fatigue in Lupus? If yes did it help?

[Flueby]

Yes and yes. Still get periods of extreme tiredness but more just when I overdo it now rather than all the time. I would say worth a go and I use the brands higher nature of pharmacy nord if that helps

How much do you take

[Flueby in reply to miccika1]

It depends on the brand and concentration of the supplement u buy. I would just follow what it says on the packet or buy it in a health food shop and ask for there advice. I actually went to see a nutritionit privately who suggested it.

I’ve been taking it for years, as in about 10 years plus, per two of my doctors. I can’t say it increases energy level, no, but I would not stop taking it as it is for arteries and vessel health. While it may be a pill you take that you see no real time effects from, well worth the investment.

I started yesterday 100mg three times a day. I will report back in two-three months...

I've never heard of it. I get tired if I push myself, which isn't very often. I just rely on hydroxy for fatigue, its helped but doesn't take it away altogether

Been taking 1.5g for past year, I started on 300mg over 15 years ago. I really struggle without it. Ved is manufacturer - get it on Amazon, liquid preparation works best for me. Can cause severe insomnia so take in the morning with breakfast.
