Don't drink urine...: Drinking another person's urine is not in general a healthy practice, and i would discourage it. If the urine is infected with bacteria or viruses, it would be possible for the person drinking the urine to acquire infections. Enjoy intimacy, but try not drink body fluids from others to minimize risk of spreading diseases.

Unhealthy practice: I agree with dr. Sturgis. When you ingest urine that is contaminated with bacteria it can cause you to become ill. It can cause dehydration through sodium and minerals in the urine. Must recommend against drinking urine.
