vitamin b urine color

certain vitamins like vitamin B can do this... i cant remember which one but i used to take a vitamin B and it was like neon yellow...because your body is excreting what it doesnt use... i cant say ive noticed this with my prenatals but maybe my body is using mor than yours.... if im even correct by saying this?

My urine has been like a neon yellow kinda lime greenish color. I drink plenty of water so I know I'm not dehydrated and I'm taking prescription prenatal vitamins. What could this mean?

@aduiki yes the livolin contain vitamin B2(riboflavin ) , vitamin B1 , vitamin B6 , vitamin B12 can this be the cause of change in urine color

The B vitamin most likely to cause the neon yellow color in your urine is vitamin B2, not B12. B2 is also known as riboflavin. MOST B vitamins are water soluble, and this is the case with vitamin B2, or riboflavin. The neon color is not something you need to be concerned with. I have this color almost all the time, as I am told to take more of the riboflavin to help prevent migraines.

More recently, for the past month, if I take the vitamin, it could take up to the 3rd urination following the vitamin before my urine changes to that color, and sometimes it could last for multiple urinations. Is something wrong with my kidneys / am I retaining urine, or both?

s the same .. i too have vitamin b tablets which drastically changes the urine color.. the best way is an hpt...

I remember my urine having an ammonia smell, right before I treated, but for the first 20 odd yrs,my urine was normal.in color, unless I took a Stress B vitamin.

After having an array of weird symptoms, I decided to start taking a Stress B-Complex and an additional B-12 supplement. It seems that most people who take B vitamins get extremely yellow urine when the excess vitamins flush out, but my urine remains either completely clear or barely yellow. I do drink lots of water every day. Is this a bad sign? Or simply a sign that my body actually is deprived of vitamin B and using up everything I pour into it? Do I need stronger supplements?

It just says prenatal plus on the description it says low iron

Hi there, There are several causes of strong odor in the urine. If you are on Vitamin supplements especially Vitamin B supplements urine can have a strong odor. Also in some medical conditions like diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis, urine does have a strong odor. Do increase your daily intake of water to around 8-10 glasses a day and see if the smell decreases. Also do let me know if you have any other medical condition or have any other symptoms beside this.

urine color as long as different from dark color is healthier, in ur case a lighter color is ok probably due to supplements mind that food can also change urine color shades Steff did you have the same problem?

m taking B complex 100, 1x/day. So, when mentioning the urine color to my PCP, will she drop the dosage, drop the b vitamin all together, change how often I take a lower dose, or just say this is normal?

Another explanation for dark urine could be your prenatal vitamin. Sometimes they can change the color of your urine.

Vitamins can do it. I think vitamin B or E can make the urine color dark. I read it somewhere... Good luck!!

Water soluble vitamins can cause cloudy urine such as all the B vitamins and Vitamin C. Some medications can also cause urine to be cloudy as can pregnancy or diabetes. Kidney Stones can also cause cloudy urine but believe me if you had stones you would certainly know it. There are extremely painful. I urge you to consult your medical provider.

What type are you using? What color is your urine stream.

s all kinds of things that can cause dark urine so its best to go see a doc. Shoot, I used to take a vitamin supplement that would turn mine a florescent color no matter how much water I drank....and, there's no way telling what my urine color was when I was in the acute stage....didn't find out about the Hep until it was already chronic.

Energy drinks are all the craze. My husband uses those little bottles of 5-HOUR ENERGY drinks. I read the label and it has extremely high amounts of Niacin and B12. I know certain vitamins are stored in the body while others aren't. Are these B vitamin doses safe on a regular basis? Also what happens to the body when high doses of B vitamins are ingested like this?

Doctors will tell you that your urine should be pale, but if you are taking a lot of Vitamin B (or eating a lot of food that is high in Vitamin B) you can get urine that is yellow for that reason alone. (My prenatal vitamins gave me very bright yellow pee.

Just for background, I had not ejaculated for a few days, but nothing out of routine. I take vitamin B and drink protein shakes. The only medication I took recently was a Promethazine tablet (25mg) the day before. Also, every other day I use a penis water pump just for partner's enjoyment.

s the nights concentrated first urine), and then a lighter shade, but still looks like I am taking a vitamin b supplement by the color of it. Not too worried, but just wanted to confer with others. Glad to hear you are having the same thing. I drink plenty of water, but don't go totally overboard, because I do believe there's such a thing as overworking your kidneys. BTW, In this regard, if the yellow pee was a prob, I believe it would more likely be liver related than kidney.

Hello~It is very unlikely that it is due to the Vitamin C, I have taken that brand in the Raspberry flavor, it is red, and it has never changed the color of my urine. You actually can not get too much vitamin C, it is a water soluble vitamin, thus your body excretes what it doesn't need, but again, it would not be dark unless you are not drinking enough water throughout the day.
