Some people have: found that CoQ10 reduces the side effects associated with Statin use. There are no peer reviewed scientifically validated studies to support this claim however I have had patient's in whom they do notice a reduction in symptoms and side effects with its use. It can't really do any harm so I don't restrict them from continuing it.
