Is A Sweet Urine Smell A Normal Side Effect After 6 Weeks Of Taking Accutane?

I’m noticing a sweet urine smell, been taking accutane (Claravis) for about 6 weeks now and just started noticing this. Is this normal or common at all. In general usually first thing in the morning when I urinate. It has a strong scent and that’s normal. But now it’s a very different almost sweet scent all the time no matter how much water I drink to flush my possibly dehydration out I can still smell it.
