Lime Green Urine..is this normal?

choxie19

I read a topic about this when I googled lime green ruine but I couldn't find it again. I was just wondering if that's normal. I started taking a women's one a day multi vitamin and well today when I went to the bathroom, my urine was lime green. I am sort of bugging out because I have no pain or odor and I don't drink soda much anymore. I haven't eaten anything green today. I'm just really curious because I may need to make an appointment to my obgyn to see what's up.

bright green urine can indicate an excess of B vitamins. Those energy drinks with 10 berjillion units of B vitamins for energy can cause bright green pee, also. Nothing to worry about, but you may want to really revisit whether you need a multi at all, assuming you're eating otherwise healthy foods, but that's your decision to make.

Ditto on the B vitamins, just check the stats on your multi and see if it's B-heavy.

It's nothing to worry about if you have no other symptoms, and the excess B is just being peed out anyway so you shouldn't worry about ODing on it or anything.

I've heard of bright yellow urine from too much B vitamins, but maybe green is common too??? But neon green urine can also be a sign of C-diff. Have you been on antibiotics?

Could be caused by a variety of things (most likely an excess vitamin B intake). Here's a link discussing the possible causes:
