Pyridium (phenazopyridine)?: is one of your medicines pyridium (phenazopyridine)? That is often prescribed to relieve the burning sensation (not an antibiotic), and it will make your urine orange. Nothing to be concerned about. As for nausea and dizziness, it may be from the antibiotic or the infection itself. Drink plenty of fluids. If it becomes severe, see your doctor.

Call your doctor: Most likely it is Medicine effect called Pyridium (phenazopyridine) which may cause Nausea and vomiting in many pts and is well known for changing the color of urine too dark orange or coffee colored. So better to contact MD and show the Medicines you are on and which one to stop and need to be changed
