What Causes Green Stools When Taking Fosamax, Calcium With Vitamin D?

I have just started taking generic fosamax, calcium with vitamin d daily, and 50,000u of vitamin d supplement once a week after discovering 2 compression fractures of T 8 and T 9 along with a vitamin d deficiency--16. Could these new meds be causing green stools?
