Heartburn from Red Yeast Rice - High Cholesterol Message Board

Does anyone get heartburn? A few years ago I was on RYR and got off because of heartburn. I started taking it again, today, and the heartburn is back. Is this unusual?

I did get heartburn and bad stomach ache from red yeast rice back in the fall.
I was taking the maximum dose and not with food.
After behing off the ryr for a few months, my numbers went back up so I started taking it again but only 600 mg per day with food and no signs of heartburn.
