CoQ10 supplementation has been shown to reduce fatigue levels in individuals with fibromyalgia, statin-related fatigue, multiple sclerosis and end-stage heart failure, as well as in healthy individuals

In April 2019 researchers from Iran published their review of the medical scientific literature to assess the effect of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) supplementation on fatigue experienced by adolescents and adults. A total of 16 studies were included in their review. Results showed that CoQ10 supplementation was significantly beneficial in individuals with fibromyalgia, statin-related fatigue, multiple sclerosis and end-stage heart failure, as well as healthy individuals. A further analysis revealed that individuals with statin-related fatigue and fibromyalgia had better results than individuals in the other groups. Differences between study individuals should, however, be taken into account and further research is required.
