Citicoline and CoQ10 protection study
Neuroprotective Effect of the Combination of Citicoline and CoQ10 in a Mouse Model of Ocular Hypertension.
Combination effects on hypertension examined
We investigated how a combination of citicoline and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) might impact retinal cell health in a mouse model of ocular hypertension (OHT). Using four groups of mice, including those receiving the combination treatment and a control group, we aimed to understand if these substances could protect against the loss of retinal ganglion cells, which is a major concern in glaucoma.
The treatment was started 15 days prior to inducing ocular hypertension with a laser and continued until we examined the mice about a week later. Our findings were promising: the combination of citicoline and CoQ10 led to a temporary reduction in eye pressure shortly after treatment. Furthermore, it significantly prevented the death of specific retinal cells that are vital for vision.
While we were encouraged by these results, especially regarding cell protection, it's important to note that there were no significant impacts on neurons in the visual pathway areas we studied, like the dLGN. Overall, our research suggests that this combination might offer neuroprotective benefits in specific aspects of ocular hypertension, paving the way for further exploration into treatments that go beyond only lowering eye pressure.

No side effects
Good purchase. The doctor prescribed this for my hypertension, aiming to gradually replace hypertene with red yeast. This product hasn’t caused any side effects, allergies, or rejections and has met its objective. It’s also free from excipients and offers great value for money.

No worries
This helps me manage my hypertension. This is my second order of red yeast rice. I also take Natto-sera alongside it, and I feel less worried about my high blood pressure. There are no side effects.
