The effects of lorazepam (agitation reducer/sleep inducer, muscle relaxant, anxiety reducer, inhibitor of new memory formation) may be considered as adverse or side effects if unwanted.
Making the world better, one answer at a time. Grainy, sandy looking stools may be caused by a number of issues. If you suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or Crohn's disease, it may be those diseases causing your malformed stools. Other issues are too much fiber, infections, fatty foods, and more.
Stools that are pale, white, or look like clay or putty may be the result of a lack of bile or by a blockage in the bile ducts. Stools that are light in color or look like clay can also occur after a test in the colon that uses barium (such as a barium enema), because the barium may be passed in the stool. But in the absence of such a test being done recently, pale stools could be the result of something else happening in the digestive tract.
