Mine is like a fluorescent green/yellow and I'm on prenatals...I think it's normal. I've been taking them for years.

as far as I know and from things I have read it is a harmless side effect...I take them everyday as well...they are water soluble vitamins and anything the body does not need is excreted through the urine...I hope that helps

i had the SAME exact thing happen when taking B vitamins!
there is NO WORRY AT ALL!!! I spoke to my doc about it - she said it is our body's way of ridding itself of the excess vitamins (there's no way to overdose)...

Re: little gross...but should i be concerned?
This happened to me over the summer and I actually Googled "Neon green urine".
I had no idea that it was linked to vitamins, but sure enough, "Neon green urine" got a bunch of hits all talking about Vitamin B, and I had just started taking a supplement with like 3000% of Vitamin B (which is such a joke; I couldn't find a B Vitamin supplement with less, though!).
