Can MB oral ingestion turn whites of eyes blue?
-
I know someone who takes MB and recently noticed barely perceptible blue bands in the whites of their eyes.
Looked it up and find no mention anywhere that oral ingestion of MB can cause this. Rather, the possibilities seem mostly horrible. It will take months to get into an ophthalmologist because that is today's society.
Anyone have experience with this?

@Harambe How much was your friend taking? The half-life of MB is 40 hours so if you take it on consecutive days it can accumulate.
-
I think about three times a week, maybe 4 to 6 drops at a time. So not much. Very fair skinned.
-
@Harambe what concentration? I take 300mcg per drop and have not noticed this, I haven't even experienced the blue pee. Does your friend get blue pee as well?
Anyhow, it should clear up by itself. -
Methylene blue was identified by Paul Ehrlich around 1891 as a possible treatment for malaria. It fell out of use as an anti-malarial during World War II in the Pacific, as American and Allied soldiers disliked its reversible side effects: blue coloration of the urine and sclera (the whites of the eyes).
