co-enzyme Q10

Have read here of some people who use co-enzyme-q10 to improve their heart function. I am on two different tablets at the moment to help my heart function go up from 45 so that I can go back on herceptin. Which particular co-enzyme-q10 is best to use? Seems to be different ones in the shops. Also is it safe to use while on chemotherapy - taxotere (and herceptin when I can get heart working properly). Grateful for any information. Thanks.
