CoQ10 On The Fast Track

In a sparsely worded press release Tishcon Corporation announced that they have received orphan drug status for CoQ10. This speeds up the time when CoQ10 might be an approved drug for Huntington's Disease. For those with insurance that could save them $100+/mo in costs over what is paid today.

Here's the press release:

Tishcon Corp. Receives Orphan Drug Designations for Coenzyme Q10 in the Treatment of Pediatric Congestive Heart Failure and Huntington's Disease
