Q10 (Ubiquinone/Ubiquinol) Effect on Tinnitus?

[Axel]

Hi!

I recently started taking Q10 100mg a day. It is claimed to prevent nerve damage among other things when having diabetes.

My tinnitus worsened shortly after taking them. But is that just coincidence or can Q10 have any effect on tinnitus after just a few pills.

Anyone else had any experience with Q10 and tinnitus?

Maybe an old publication https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21162656
But has someone ever given this a shot? It looks like well done research.

Is water-soluble coenzyme Q10 the same as the Q10 that you can buy online?

It did nothing to my Tinnitus. I took for about 2 months.

I take CoQ10, I don't think it has any effect on tinnitus, good or bad.

Hi Axel, just want to ask if your tinnitus went back to the baseline after stopping Ubiquinol?

I take CoQ10 200 mg daily with no effect on my tinnitus.

Hi Axel, just want to ask if your tinnitus went back to the baseline after stopping Ubiquinol?

I am wondering the same. I also took CoQ10 for some time (more than a week) and my tinnitus spiked. I stopped it and I am wondering if these supplements might cause any kind of persistent worsening.
