Not graded yet, under clinical review. Precaution meanwhile: Do not add red yeast rice to lipid-lowering or high-dose nicotinic acid without clinician review. The same interaction is not established for ordinary nutritional niacin or nicotinamide. Assess the actual product, form and dose. Pause optional red yeast rice and non-prescribed niacin and seek prompt assessment for unexplained muscle pain, weakness or liver symptoms. Dark urine, marked weakness or significant illness needs assessment today, with emergency help for severe deterioration. Do not stop prescribed lipid treatment yourself. Your clinician should decide whether blood tests are needed.
