What can turn urine orange?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
These things: Medications that can turn urine orange include rifampin; sulfasalazine (Azulfidine); phenazopyridine (Pyridium); some laxatives; and certain chemotherapy drugs. In some cases, orange urine can indicate a problem with your liver or bile duct, especially if you also have light-colored stools. Orange urine may also be caused by dehydration, which can concentrate your urine.
