Red rice and artichoke extract has no effect on the effect and effectiveness of contraceptive pills. You can use the enclosed supplement with Vibin Mini tablets.
There are reports that monacolin K contained in red rice extract may increase the effect of contraceptive pills, which does not affect their effectiveness, but may potentially increase the risk of side effects, e.g. causing mid-cycle bleeding, headache or lower abdominal pain. However, this interaction has not been confirmed in studies to be clinically relevant (significant effects on patients' health).
