White Flecks Floating In Urine After Taking Cipro For UTI. Is This Normal?

I'm taking Cipro for prostatitis/urinary tract infection. A day into the treatment I am noticing white flecks floating in my urine. I put the urine in a clean glass and held it up to the light. Looked like a light snowfall. is this normal as the antibiotics take on the bacteria? I'm on the Cipro for a month. All kidney CBC was normal. Blood and Urine cultures positive.
