It means that the urine is too concentrated. Drink more water, aim for like 8 glasses a day minimum.

Remember the Russian spy that died last week? Orange/gold urine is a sure sign of toxic radiation ingestion OK, just kidding. Common causes of orange urine are:
Beets - turn urine reddish
Borscht (beet soup) - turn urine reddish
Blackberries - may lead to red urine
Rhubarb - can cause orange urine
Senna - can lead to orange urine
Blood in urine - uh oh - stay away from hookers
Dehydration - causes darker urine or even a gold-color urine
Bile in urine - causes a tea-like or mahogany color
Jaundice - causes bile in urine

dehydration!! drink more water or you may develop kidney stones over time. some meds may contribute-- that is one reason that many meds note that you should drink more water during the treatment. 64 ounces is daily target.
