Actually, it's a generic, but

Am I the only person who got a chuckle out of the warning that it might stain contact lenses?

My first thought is that I don't usually pee on mine, though I'm sure that's not quite what they meant.

Yes, it struck me as pretty bizarre too, but apparently the dye can actually come through your tear ducts! Not very common I am guessing. I wear contacts and it never stained mine. And I'm sure I must have been in tears at least once while taking AZO! But it stains cotton underwear like nobody's business.

Anywhere on the body where fluids are released (tear ducts, sweat glands) could cause staining. If you do in fact wear contacts be cautious; I know of someone who had staining from these types of meds.

Wishing you well....
