Brief Answer:
Tinidazole causes dark urine

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) Dark urine is due to tinidazole you are taking.

2) Loss of appetite and headache is due to hormonal variations which are exaggerated by tinidazole.

These symptoms will reduce soon. Dont worry about it.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
