Why Is My Poop Green?
4. Medication
Another thing that can cause your poop to turn green is the use of medication. It is not fully understood why some medications can turn your poop green, although it is thought that some can make changes to how our food is digested by interfering with the population of useful bacteria in your digestive system.
Medications that can cause this include indomethacin, a type of anti-inflammatory that is often used to help treat arthritis. Depo-Provera, a type of birth control, can also lead to green poop. You can ask your doctor because they should be well aware of the symptoms that are associated with certain medication.
