The following is from Dr. Burrascano's
Guidelines........check out the last sentence, please!

CO-Q 10 (ubiquinone): Deficiencies have been related to poor function of the heart, limitations of stamina, and poor resistance to infections. Tissue biopsy studies have resulted in the recommendation that a patient with chronic Lyme should take between 200 and 300 mg daily of standard brands, or 90 mg daily of the pharmaceutical quality product marketed by Pharmanex, in two or three equal doses. Improvements do not begin for several weeks. The body will manufacture its own Co-Q 10 when the original infection is controlled, but only if stimulated by aggressive exercise. Therefore, use this supplement until you are feeling well and exercising regularly. NOTE: do not take this if you currently are taking atovaquone (Mepron).

I did not know this until someone here posted this info...

I have heard this before, but am curious why CoQ-10 shouldn't be taken with mepron if you space it at least two hours apart?
