What Causes Excreting Oily Urine?

In the last few days I have been excreting oily urine. Does that
ususally mean a kidney problem (cancer?), or is it likely that
two antibiotic pills and Atovaquone that I have recently started
taking could be the cause? The medications are for two tick-
born infections.
Thank you.
