What Causes Passing Green Stool Despite On Robinul And Prilosec For IBS?

Hi, I suffer from IBS. I am on medication such Robinul, probiotics and Prilosec. My BMs for the past 24 hours are runny with a lot of discomfort, pain and cramping. Tonight I noticed a bright green color even though I haven t eaten any veggies or food of that color. Does this show a lack of vitamins etc? Thank you, Carlos
