Brief Answer:
may be due to Pseudomonas urinary tract infection or due to any drug.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to H.C.M.

I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.

First thing for you is not to be scared from green color urine and keep patience.

You will be fine soon and free from this green color urine.

This green color urine may be due to Pseudomonas urinary tract infection or due to any drug.

After seeing your drug history, only Silenor (doxepin) is a cause for green urine in rare cases.

To rule out Pseudomonas urinary tract infection , you will need urine culture and sensitivity test.

I advise my patient to follow these steps in such history-

1) Drink plenty of fluids -8 to 10 glasses of water.

2) Urine culture and sensitivity test with first morning midstream urine by the help of your local doctor.

3) Ask your doctor to change your Silenor (doxepin) to other medicine if possible.

Review with reports or whenever you need to ask anything.


Hope this answers your question.

Please do not hesitate for any query.

I will be happy to answer your questions.
