Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The single-center, randomized, open-label, three-period crossover bioavailability study will include 21 subjects who will test three CoQ10 formulations. Subjects will test 3 formulations of single dose CoQ10 within first 3 weeks to assess bioavailability, which will be followed with 2 weeks of continuous administration of one of study formulations to demonstrate and assesse multiple-dose profile of CoQ10.
