Neuroprotective
Toxicity is not
usually observed with high doses of CoQ10. A daily dosage up to 3600 mg was found to be
tolerated by healthy as well as unhealthy persons.[20] However, some adverse
effects, largely gastrointestinal, are reported with very high intakes. The
observed safe level (OSL) risk assessment method indicated that the evidence of
safety is strong at intakes up to 1200 mg/day, and this level is identified
as the OSL.

A 2002
study in 80 Parkinson's disease patients found 1200 mg/day reduced the progression by 44%.[74][75] A
phase III trial of 1200 mg/d and 2400 mg/d ran until August 2011.
This study was terminated and the summary concluded: "The investigational
drug is unlikely to demonstrate efficacy over placebo for this indication.
However, no safety issues were discovered."[76]
