HelloPharmacist Scorecard of CoQ10 & BioPQQ with Shilajit by Global Healing Center

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 12, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 3 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains three active ingredients. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a compound your body makes naturally and stores in cells to help with energy production.

Shilajit is an organic mineral-rich substance traditionally used in herbal practice. BioPQQ is the third ingredient, though we don't have detailed information on file about its specific role.

The capsule itself is made from vegetable material, with organic gum acacia and organic rice as inactive ingredients (binders and flow agents).

Does it work?

Strong evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: support mitochondrial function and energy.
  • We looked for evidence on: Aging, Athletic performance, Chemotherapy-related fatigue, Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), Coenzyme Q10 deficiency, Congestive heart failure (CHF) — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Coenzyme Q10 is rated "Likely Effective" for Coenzyme Q10 deficiency (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Coenzyme Q10 is rated "Possibly Effective" for Congestive heart failure (CHF), Fibromyalgia.
  • Also on file: Coenzyme Q10 is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Chemotherapy-related fatigue.

CoQ10 has the strongest evidence in this product. It's rated Likely Effective for CoQ10 deficiency and Possibly Effective for fibromyalgia, migraine headache, heart failure, and diabetic nerve pain.

Shilajit's effectiveness isn't well established in the data we hold — all its studied uses (memory, sexual function, athletic performance, prostate health, and bone density) are rated Insufficient Reliable Evidence, meaning we don't have enough solid research to say whether it works. BioPQQ's effectiveness data isn't on file.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Coenzyme Q10 Shilajit

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

CoQ10 is generally well tolerated by most adults. Side effects in clinical studies were rare — mainly mild stomach upset (appetite loss, diarrhea, heartburn, nausea) occurring in less than 1% of participants, and a small number of reports of headache, dizziness, or trouble sleeping.

If you take more than 100 mg daily, splitting the dose may help reduce stomach effects. Shilajit carries more caution flags.

Safety data during pregnancy is inadequate and contamination risk is real, so the data advises against it during pregnancy. Safety while breastfeeding is unknown, so it's best avoided then too.

Only purified, tested brands should be used to minimize heavy metal or contaminant risk. A rare allergic reaction (hives and anaphylaxis triggered by exercise) and one case of severe high blood pressure have been reported, though the latter occurred during pregnancy and may have had other causes.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Coenzyme Q10, Shilajit.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 284 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Check before taking if you're on chemotherapy drugs (alkylating agents like cyclophosphamide) — Moderate risk that CoQ10 may reduce their effectiveness. Also check warfarin or other blood thinners (Moderate), blood pressure medications (Minor), and antidiabetes drugs like metformin or insulin (Moderate).

We could not check BioPQQ for interactions.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product may work well for CoQ10 deficiency and possibly for migraine or heart-related concerns, but effectiveness for shilajit's uses hasn't been reliably proven. If you take warfarin, blood pressure medication, chemotherapy, or diabetes drugs, check your specific medications with our tool first.

Avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Talk with your pharmacist before starting, especially if you're on any prescription.

Coenzyme Q103 drug types · 198 drugs

Alkylating Agents

Coenzyme Q10 has antioxidant effects. Theoretically, this may reduce the activity of chemotherapy drugs that generate free radicals.
Theoretically, antioxidants such as coenzyme Q10 might protect tumor cells from chemotherapeutic agents that work by inducing oxidative stress, such as alkylating agents (e.g., cyclophosphamide) and radiation therapy. The clinical importance of this interaction is unknown.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Coenzyme Q10 is chemically similar to menaquinone and might have vitamin K-like procoagulant effects, which could decrease the effects of warfarin.
Concomitant use of coenzyme Q10 and warfarin might reduce the anticoagulant effects of warfarin. Four cases of decreased warfarin efficacy thought to be due to coenzyme Q10 have been reported. However, there is some preliminary clinical research that suggests coenzyme Q10 might not significantly decrease the effects of warfarin in patients who have a stable INR.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, coenzyme Q10 might have additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.
Some clinical research shows that coenzyme Q10 can significantly lower blood pressure, although other studies have shown conflicting results.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Coenzyme Q10 full monograph & interactions

organic Shilajit1 drug type · 86 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Taking shilajit with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Most human and animal research shows that shilajit can decrease fasting plasma glucose levels. In an animal model, shilajit 100 mg per kg daily enhanced the glucose-lowering ability of both glibenclamide and metformin when given in combination over a 4 week period. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.

CoQ10 & BioPQQ with Shilajit by Global Healing Center: Common Questions

Does CoQ10 & BioPQQ with Shilajit by Global Healing Center interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, CoQ10 & BioPQQ with Shilajit has a known interaction with 284 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
CoQ10 & BioPQQ with Shilajit contains 3 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is CoQ10 safe to take if I'm on warfarin?
CoQ10 may reduce how well warfarin works. A few cases of decreased warfarin effectiveness have been reported when people took CoQ10. You'll need to talk with your pharmacist or doctor before starting — they may need to monitor your blood clotting more closely if you do take both.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. The data advises against shilajit during pregnancy due to inadequate safety data and contamination risk. Safety while breastfeeding is also unknown, so you should avoid it then too. CoQ10 safety in pregnancy isn't well established either. Talk with your doctor if you're pregnant or planning to be.
What's shilajit actually supposed to do?
Shilajit has been studied for memory, sexual function, athletic performance, prostate health, and bone health, but the evidence isn't strong enough yet for us to say it works for any of these. You're essentially taking it on the basis of traditional use rather than proven results.
Does CoQ10 in this product work for heart health?
CoQ10 is rated Possibly Effective for congestive heart failure based on research, so it may help. But 'possibly effective' means the evidence is promising but not conclusive. Talk with your doctor about whether it's right for your specific situation.
What are the side effects I might notice?
CoQ10 rarely causes side effects, but some people report mild stomach upset like nausea or diarrhea — taking it with food or splitting doses above 100 mg can help. Shilajit is less studied, but headache has been reported rarely. A very rare allergic reaction (hives or worse) is possible, and only purified brands should be used to avoid heavy metal exposure.
Can I take this if I'm on diabetes medication?
Shilajit in this product may boost how well your diabetes drugs work, increasing your risk of low blood sugar. You'll need to check with your pharmacist or doctor before starting — they can advise you on whether it's safe and whether you need monitoring or dose adjustments.
