A member asked:

My urine is dark yellow after taking new multivitamin for seniors?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vitamins: Your body is "peeing out" all the extra vitamins you do not need. Usually the b vitamins make urine very yellow. Stay well hydrated. Ask your doctor if you actually need to take a daily vitamin. Those who eat a healthy diet with plenty of veggies and some protein usually don't need a supplement.

I had a clear light yellow ribbon-like flat string pass in my stool, it wasn't long, and didn't look segmented but I'm worried. I've recently been having multivitamins and that also made my urine come off as bright yellow, similar to the flat string?
