Scientific Background | Idebenone is a synthetic analog of coenzyme Q10 with potent antioxidant properties. It has been investigated for multiple neurodegenerative conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease, Friedreich’s ataxia, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Idebenone supports mitochondrial function and reduces oxidative stress, both of which are critical in neurodegeneration. Its neuroprotective effects and ability to enhance cellular energy metabolism make it a promising therapeutic agent for disorders characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative damage. |
