What Could Cause Bright Orange Discharges?

My son is 4 years old. He had fever the last two days but has normal temperature now. He took paracetamol as meds and he is also currently taking meds for primary complex. Today, he had bright orange discharges three times. What could be causing it?

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi, your child is taking drugs for primary complex, that means he has tuberculosis and is taking rifampicin drug as part of treatment. Bright orange discharge can occur when child takes rifampicin. This will not cause any harm to body. You should continue the drug for best response. Take care.
