Hi i ate corn yesterday and today i had redish corn in my stool. i ate red liquorice yesterday also on biaxin (clarithromycin) for bronchitis. i am 48 yrs old male.

Undigested: Corn can pass undigested through the intestinal tract. Licorice acts as a laxative for some people. Also antibiotics like biaxin (clarithromycin) can loosen stools and cause more rapid transit of bowel movements.

Most likely benign: Passed corn undigested not unusual. Red dye from liquorice most likely cause of red color. Continue to check stools.
