Just bought the 600 mg per tablet and it says serving is two tablets but does not specify more
How many mg of red yeast rice a day is a reccommended dose? Take all with one meal or twice?

This from https://www.drugs.com/npp/red-yeast-rice.html
"... Red yeast rice is available commercially, primarily as a 600 mg capsule. Most manufacturers suggest a dosage of 2 capsules twice a day by mouth for a total of 2,400 mg/day. Commercial OTC products often contain coenzyme Q 10 to supplement the low levels of this enzyme found in patients with statin myopathy. Past clinical trials have used dosages of 2,400 mg/day."
