Hi there ~

I understand your concern, however you need to be seen by a doctor for the change in the color of your stools from green and having started a loose motion. I think it is not due to the medications and the stage 4 kidney failure is of concern. I believe that you need to take the medications and find out if it is making you the way you are. I hope this helps.

Take care and have a lovely day!
