Is Color Change In Stool Caused Due To Piriton, Merbentyl And Propranolol Medication?
Hello, I have had M.E. for 22 years and have had menopause symptoms also for about 2 years.
Since Sept 2013 My stools, although solid, have turned a Yellow colour. No bad odour but there has been mucus since I first got M.E.
I have to take Piriton every day for urticaria, Merbentyl for IBS, Nizoral shampoo for my scalp, Propranolol for Tachycardia, Seroxat for insomnia, Zimovane for insomnia and Melatonin for insomnia.
Could it be a menopausal symptom, I do get a broad range of these symptoms?
Could one of my prescribed drugs suddenly cause my stools to change colour after many years of use?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Your changed stool color is not because of the drugs you are taking, if you do not have any clinical symptoms which directly related with your bowel movement then why to worry about the color of stool, no need to worry about this, this is normal one, I hope you could understand this, take a good care and have nice day
