Hello Doctor, My husband is 63 yrs old ,and had started taking Krislow 100 mg alongwith some other medicines,beta blockers etc,as he was diagnosed with about 70% blockage in a couple of major arteries. in April this year.He is wondering if he should continue to take Krislow,as he has no symptoms otherwise and does not want to be over-medicated.He has already been put off 2 medicines...Atorvastatin,and Nicorandil.
Hello and thanks for writing. I can understand your concern and would try to help you in the best way possible. Kris low is co enzyme Q, and it has a theoretical role in preventing coronary blockage from progressing by acting as an anti oxidant. It has no major side effects. I suggest you continue with the medication as it would help you. Also take some time for regular exercise and follow the dietary restrictions to prevent further progression of the blockade.
