The study is a randomised placebo controlled trial of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) vitamin supplementation in a sample of patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. CoQ10 is produced in the mitochondria of our cells, and is involved in the production of energy. However, some people do not produce enough CoQ10, which can result in difficulties with concentration and memory, depressive symptoms, low energy levels and high blood pressure. The study will examine the impact of taking oral CoQ10 supplementation on patients with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder.
