Clinical Evidence
The Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) 2024 guidelines use serum creatinine as a cornerstone for calculating estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), the gold standard for assessing kidney function. Even small persistent elevations predict future kidney disease progression (PMID: 33637203).

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a normal creatinine level?
Normal creatinine is 0.7 to 1.3 mg/dL for men and 0.6 to 1.1 mg/dL for women. Muscular individuals may have naturally higher creatinine without kidney disease.
How long does it take to improve creatinine levels?
Acute creatinine elevation from dehydration or medication can improve within days. Chronic kidney disease-related elevation is often irreversible but can be stabilized with proper management over months.
Should I take supplements to improve my creatinine?
Creatine supplementation can mildly raise creatinine without indicating kidney damage. If you take creatine, inform your doctor before blood tests. No supplement reverses established kidney disease.
