Well come to HCM
Thank for asking.
your concern being appreciate, hematuria is not due to the cough medicine taken but it could be due to Urinary track infection with stone condition or without that but it is less common in male, symptoms demands the investigations, injury also need to be ruled out, blood stain stool could be due to constipation it is common condition seen if other tests are negative, but both the symptoms of blood in urine and stool are not due to the cough medicines taken hope this information helps.
