A member asked:

I'm taking flagle for a uti, could the medicine make my urine a brownish color?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Don't think so: Dark urine is usually a sign that you are not taking in enough water - but could also be microscopic blood. Best to check with the doc that gave you the Flagyl for a repeat urine check. Good luck!
