Hello
Thanks for the query to HCM.
Cartigen ingredient is glucosamine and usually this don't produces red or yellow color urine i.e.this is not a side effect of cartigen .
However cartigen should be prescribed with SPECIAL PRECAUTION in diabetic and cardiac patient .
As you mentioned that your father is having diabetes and also heart patient so consult your treating doctor and get his opinion.
Good luck.
