About Q-Ten Tablet

Q-Ten Tablet belongs to the class of 'Nutritional supplements’ primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies due to various complications or long-term diseases. It is used to improve and prevent heart attack symptoms, hypertension (high blood pressure), congestive heart failure, muscular dystrophy, macular degeneration (age-related vision loss), migraine headaches, fertility problems, and slowing the progression of Parkinson's disease. Nutritional deficiencies occur when the body does not absorb or get enough vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants from the food. 

Q-Ten Tablet is a combination of three supplements: Levocarnitine, Tocopherol (vitamin E), and Ubiquinone (CoQ10). Levocarnitine is a naturally occurring amino acid derivative that helps your body turn fat into energy. It works by improving the low levels of carnitine in the body. Tocopherol is a fat-soluble vitamin. When there are too many free radicals accumulated in our body, it leads to various complications and diseases. Tocopherol (vitamin E) acts as an antioxidant that helps nourish and protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. Thus, it lowers the chances of heart disease, cancer, vision problems, and brain disorders. Ubiquinone is an antioxidant that protects the body from damage by chemicals (free radicals).

You are advised to take Q-Ten Tablet for as long as your doctor has recommended it, depending on your medical conditions. You may experience necrotizing enterocolitis (affects the premature new-born baby), bleeding due to vitamin K deficiency, diarrhea, blurred vision, flatulence (gas), fatigue, increased creatinine level in the blood, headache, nausea, and vomiting, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea and stroke.
