Common Questions and Answers about Levaquin green stool

levaquin

Avatar m tn Then I got Shingles 6 months ago, then the throat infection 4 months ago, and now whatever is causing the discomfort and abnormal stool in my bowels since taking the Levaquin which was prescribed for my throat infection. It just ***** that after all these tests and prescriptions, there is still no answer. My hope is that all these can be traced back to the dentist, in which I could open a law suit and at least be reimbursed for all my troubles.
716841 tn?1289948186 The stool can become green on taking food rich in green leafy vegetables. If this is not the cause, then the stool is passing out of the large intestine at a very rapid rate so the bile does not break down. This can happen if you have malabsoroption syndromes. A viral infection can change the stool color to dark bottle green color. Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Hope this helps. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage.

Avatar n tn I recently had a stool analysis test, ordered by a natrualpath, which revealed aeromonas caviae as a pathogen, and told me to take 21 days ofLevaquin, 500 mg 2 x daily. My internal Dr. and GI Dr. said aeromonas caviae is not a pathogen, and the test was "hocus pocus." I do not know whom to believe. I took 7 days of Levaquin and did feel better.

Avatar f tn I am 33 weeks and around the same time I had green stool. It's actually perfectly normal and means you must be eating more iron or salad or greens. Usually green stool is a good sign. But you can check with you doctor if you're concerned. I had it though and it went away about a week later.
Avatar f tn I am in my early fifties and for the first time ever I have noticed that my stool has been a forest green for the past week. I take no medications, have a balanced diet, probably at least a 50/50 ratio poultry/fish to veggies and am post menaposal. I feel fine, no discomfort or abdominal pain.
Avatar n tn If that green color was from bile, you'd probably feel some anal burning during bm.
Avatar f tn Second we usually think of healthy stool being brown but stool is actually green before its brown due to bile being in the small intestine and as the green stool passes thru the large intestine over time it turns Brown. So If your stool was green ir could mean that it just passed thru the intestine too quickly for it to turn Brown. Its happend to me many many times. Hope that answers your question!
Avatar n tn Why is my stool green? I will be 50 years old shortly. I am on no medications and have no health problems that I am aware of. Periodically, (like once last year & then a couple of times this month) my stool is grass green, usual normal consistency, & stays that way for a few days. What would cause this?
Avatar n tn s and had green stool for about a week, ya a hole week of green stools, with mild cramping. They should put a warning sign upin front saying "PURPLE CHIPS WILL GIVE YOU GREEN POOP" This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/234200'>Green stool</a>.
Avatar m tn Usually green stool is an indication that you are getting a lot of chlorofyl in your system from green vegetables, and shouldn't be a concern. But, (and pardon my being so graphic) does your stool float, too? This is a sign of giardia, which you can pick up from your dog, cat, handling shoes that were in a watery area outside, just about anywhere. If this persists, and/or if the stool is green and floats, you will need to see a doctor for a diagnosis and a pill that will knock it out.
Avatar f tn the more you have in you, the more your body can push out whatever its not liking. the most common causes of green stool are food coloring and excess fiber, but it does depend on what kind of green youre talking about. if its very slimy and not like normal diarrhea, its most likey bile, stomach acids, etc. if its an acceptable consistency, looks like youd expect it to, and just tinted, its most likely fiber or food colorings.
Avatar n tn green stool is usually an indication of an infection somewhere. Your body is trying to fight it off. Depending on which infection, you may feel fine, but you should be checked as it could be something underlying that should be addressed.

Avatar f tn I have been experiencing yellow nearly all liquid diarrhea for almost three weeks now. I had renal blood work done that came back within normal parameters and have yet to get my stool results back from the lab. My Dr. put me on Levaquin and atropine which i have been taking for 4 days with no improvement in my symptoms. I am now experiencing pain in my lower left abdomen. I aa also losing weight. What tests should I be asking for at this point?
Avatar f tn 3 - 4 days all symptoms came back so they put on Levaquin 250 again. I had to give a stool sample and get a colonscopy - which came back negative. The stool sample showed no bacteria so I stopped the Levaquin as tinging came back. I have gone down hill since. The colonoscopy was done the beginning of February and since then I have had severe joint pain, muscle twitches, facial pain mainly in my right cheek and red rashes on my cheeks.
