never smelled burnt hair before; sorry but up we go! Posted by AnnaL (Member # 18464) on :
I haven't been on clindomycin, but my urine smells very chemical-y since I started abx. Not sure if it's burnt hair smell, but definitely not pleasant.

What does "UP" mean, folks?
Posted by randibear (Member # 11290) on :
yeah me too....it's a chemical type smell, like hmmm, drugs...
i think "up" means that if you don't have any responses, somebody comes along, responds, and it moves to the top of the posts....er, something like that...

Otherwise known as a "Bump" or "bump up".
As for the topic, my urine doesn't smell like burnt hair, but I am sorry yours does, Color Green - not a pleasant smell.
I'm no expert but it seems when there is a change in urine while on medications it's usually something to tell your doctor about. It could be a harmless side-effect of a medication or it could be more important.
Have you been on regular testing for your liver/kidneys, etc?

yes, all the meanings of bump/up are correct.
it's a way that if you've not had a reply in 24 hrs. to get it up to top so it's seen, read, and replied if folks have answers!
my urine has always had a very strong smell to it; sometimes like chlorox bleach! STRONG!
