Vaskurel names four components, and one of them changes how you should read the whole product: red yeast rice contains monacolin K, which is chemically identical to a statin. That single fact makes a pharmacist conversation necessary rather than optional.
Product overview
Vaskurel is a capsule supplement sold in Nigeria through a direct order line, positioned around blood vessels, cholesterol and circulation.
The four declared components are African mango extract (Irvingia gabonensis, ogbono — a genuinely West African ingredient), vitamin D, coenzyme Q10 and red yeast rice.
Red yeast rice is the component that deserves the most attention. It contains monacolin K, chemically identical to the prescription statin lovastatin. Products containing it carry statin-like effects, statin-like side effects and statin-like interactions, at a dose that varies between batches. Combining it with a prescribed statin is specifically inadvisable.
Product type
Botanical and nutrient capsule supplement for cardiovascular wellbeing, sold direct in Nigeria.

Key ingredients and formula
What the supplier names, and what each component is in plain terms.
African mango extract (Irvingia gabonensis)
Seed extract of the West African ogbono tree, studied in a small number of trials for weight and lipid measures.
Vitamin D
Fat-soluble vitamin with roles in bone and immune function. Accumulates in the body, so the dose matters.
Coenzyme Q10
Involved in mitochondrial energy production; discussed most often in the context of statin therapy and heart failure.
Red yeast rice
Fermented rice containing monacolin K, chemically identical to lovastatin. Carries statin-like effects, side effects and interactions at an unpredictable dose.
On the amounts.The four components above are named in the supplier material; amounts are not published. For red yeast rice the monacolin content is the critical figure, and its absence is a genuine problem rather than a formality.
Suggested use

Order pageFrequently asked questions
Is red yeast rice safe?
It contains a compound identical to a prescription statin, at a dose that varies between products. It carries the same side effects and interactions and should be treated with the same seriousness.
Can I take it instead of my statin?
No. You would be swapping a measured, monitored dose for an unmeasured one, without the blood tests that go with statin treatment.
