Can watermelon make your stool reddish? How about Zantac? I started taking Zantac for some upper stomach discomfort and today and I had red stool. I never had this before I was taking it so hope it is from either of these two things.

When you decrease the acid in your stomach -- it can cause a change in your digestion.
Also watermelon is red and with some people it can make your stool redish but it depends on what is eaten with it??

Thanks Harry. I had lasagna earlier on and just some green beens for dinner because I had such a big lunch. I know, it doesn't sound veyr healthy. Well then I had the watermelon. Then this morning I had the change. Mentioned it to my doctor and he said Zantac itself wouldn't cause the color but I did look on the ingredients and it says red iron or something like that?
