I am taking ubiquinol not ubiquinone, this is not on the drop down medication list, so had to put ubiquinone--not sure if this could be a problem with drug interaction? Janet 62yrs female

I've been taking CoQ10 - 200mgs for several years, additionally I am on Plavix, Warfarin and 83 mg asprin. Although I get very frequent nosebleeds, they stop after applying pressure in about a minute or 2. I am not sure if it's the CoQ 10 or the blood thinners, or such causing the issue. Since I also take simvastatin, I felt it would help prevent cramps, which I get occasionally.
