What Causes Yellow, Metallic Smelling Bowel Movement When On Barrett S Esophagus Medication?

My boyfriend said his bowel movement was yellow and strong metallic smelling this morning. Was just diagnosed with Barrett s esophagus. He eats too fast too. I know these may be causes, but hes on paxil, lamictal, and trazadone. Could his meds be a cause to this as well as causing liver/pancreatic disease?
