A member asked:

I am taking cipro (ciprofloxacin) and flagyl for diverticulitis can the combination of both antibiotics make your pee dark in color?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not typical: Thats a common combination, but I've never had a patient comment on dark urine. Are you dehydrated? If you're passing good volume of urine and it's still dark, call your doctor. This should be investigated. Good luck.
