I've just started taking Akurit 4 tablets for mild TB, and I've noticed that my urine has turned orange since this morning. Is this something that usually happens, or should I be really concerned about it? I'm feeling a bit anxious and would love to get some clarity on this.

I'm a civil engineer and often travel to places where the air isn't too clean. Every time I do this, I end up with difficulty breathing through my nose the next day, although I can breathe fine through my mouth. My local doctor gave me this tab called Ebasil, and it works great, but the symptoms come back as soon as I stop taking it. Could you help me figure out what's going on and how to deal with this?
