Red Yeast Rice Extract Interactions

Some drugs that may interact with this product include: azole antifungals (such as itraconazole, ketoconazole), "blood thinners" (such as warfarin), macrolide antibiotics (such as erythromycin, clarithromycin), nefazodone, ritonavir, telithromycin. Some red yeast rice products may also contain a "statin" cholesterol-lowering drug called lovastatin. Taking too much of a statin can increase your risk of serious side effects (such as muscle and liver problems). Since you may not know if your product contains lovastatin, do not take any red yeast rice products if you are also taking any statin drugs (such as atorvastatin, lovastatin, simvastatin).

Red Yeast Rice Extract FAQs

What is red yeast rice extract good for?

Red yeast rice extract is commonly used to help lower cholesterol levels. It contains compounds that may reduce levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, often referred to as "bad" cholesterol. Some people use it as a natural alternative to statin medications. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before using red yeast rice extract, as it can have side effects and interact with other medications.

What are the bad side effects of red yeast rice?

Red yeast rice can cause several side effects, some of which may be serious. Common side effects include headache, stomach discomfort, and heartburn. More serious side effects can include muscle pain or weakness, liver damage, and kidney problems. It is important for individuals to consult with a healthcare provider before using red yeast rice, especially if they are taking other medications or have underlying health conditions.

Does red yeast rice still contain monacolin K?

Yes, red yeast rice can still contain monacolin K, which is a naturally occurring compound similar to the active ingredient in some cholesterol-lowering medications. However, the amount of monacolin K can vary significantly between different red yeast rice products. It is important to note that some products may have little to no monacolin K due to processing or regulatory standards.

Is red rice yeast safer than statins?

Red yeast rice contains naturally occurring compounds similar to statins, which can help lower cholesterol levels. However, it is not necessarily safer than statins. Both can have similar side effects, such as muscle pain and liver damage. Additionally, the quality and concentration of active ingredients in red yeast rice supplements can vary significantly, leading to inconsistent effects. It is important for individuals to consult with a healthcare provider before using red yeast rice as an alternative to statins.

What are the dangers of taking red yeast rice?

Red yeast rice can have several potential dangers and side effects. It may cause muscle pain, liver damage, and digestive issues. Additionally, because it contains monacolin K, which is chemically identical to the active ingredient in the prescription drug lovastatin, it can lead to similar side effects and drug interactions. There is also a risk of contamination with citrinin, a toxic byproduct. Individuals should consult with a healthcare provider before using red yeast rice, especially if they are taking other medications or have underlying health conditions.
