Can the medication elavil (amitriptyline) change the color of your urine? put on it for headaches and noticed that my urine is now dark yellow and green
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YEs it can: This is a classic side effect for this drug. Discoloration is usually green/blue in nature but not necessarily a sign of serious problems. Talk it over with your physician.
