[27] For example, research relating to cancer and the use of chemotherapy drugs found that carnitine supplementation was able to help reverse muscle damage and weakness caused by toxic side effects of anticancer drugs

Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCA) fed to aged rats was shown to reverse age-related declines in tissue L-carnitine levels and also reversed a number of age-related changes in liver mitochondrial function

Kidney failure : Using DL-carnitine has been reported to cause symptoms such as muscle weakness and eye drooping when administered intravenously (by IV) after dialysis

It modulates metabolic pathways, including pyruvate dehydrogenase activity, proteolysis, and protein synthesis, while also having anti-inflammatory and antioxidant characteristics
