Shared by Dr. Louis Profeta after a patient used Methylene Blue and became extremely ill. Methylene Blue is a compound becoming increasingly popular in wellness and biohacking circles.
For the obesity medicine community, it’s important for patients to understand adding something to their “stack” is not always innocuous. Many people are already taking SSRIs, anxiety meds, ADHD meds, GLP-1s, hormone therapies, and more, and methylene blue can dangerously interact with SSRI medications and contribute to Serotonin Syndrome.
The green urine itself is a known (harmless) effect of methylene blue. Please make sure talk to your doctor before adding compounds like this into the mix.
