February 25, 2015I would like to know if CoQ10 could cause diarrhea. My husband insists that it did this to him and now refuses to take it. An on-line search only revealed diarrhea possibly caused by anti-cholesterol meds, with which CoQ10 is sometimes taken, but I could find no info making a direct link.
Hi Sandra - Yes, CoQ10 can cause gastrointestinal upset, including diarrhea, in some people. See the Caution and Concerns section for how to minimize this side effect: https://www.consumerlab.com/reviews/coq10-ubiquinol-supplements-review/coq10/#cautions
