When Does Teeth Staining Caused By Phenazopyrid Go Away?

I m taking phenazopyrid and it appears it has stained my teeth and the corner of my eyes are turning yellowish. I did research and it says I should only be on it 2 days, well I have taken a total of 8 pills ... will the stains go away once I stop taking it?

Hello,
Yes,these stains should go away once you stop taking it but you should check your kidney functions test done to see whether their is any impairment of kidneys because staining of eye may mean accumulation of drug because of poor kidney functions.
Thanks
