Join MitoAction and Acton Pharmacy’s Clinical Pharmacist, Ted Toufas as we revisit and provide the latest updates about the mito cocktail! The mito cocktail is one of the front-line treatment approaches to mitochondrial disease and uses a combination, unique to each patient based on symptoms and diagnosis, of vitamins and supplements such as Coenzyme Q10, B-vitamins, L-Carnitine, Creatine, and Alpha Lipoic Acid.
