Would Taking Antibiotic Cause Bad Odour During Urination?
Hi, My urine smells like hard boiled eggs and has for 3 months, At first I thought it was because of an antibiotic I was takinggg but the smell still lingers. I began taking plaqunil about the same time but it gave me stomach pain so I quit taking it. I since starting to take valium and leva-dopa but the smell was there before I started those. I drink about 20-30 oz of water a day. I take many medications but have been on them for years. Any suggestions?
