Creatinine is a byproduct of creatine. Creatine naturally occurs in fish and meat. It is also produced by the human body in its kidneys, liver, and pancreas. Creatine is transformed into creatine phosphate or phosphocreatine and stored in the muscles where it is used as energy.
Creatinine is a waste product of muscles. It is produced from breakdown of creatine in muscle metabolism (when you use your muscles) and enters the blood in constant concentration. The bloodstream transports creatinine to the kidneys, from where the body filters it out through urine.
Creatinine is released during normal muscle function. The greater someone's muscle mass the higher the creatinine levels. For this reason men tend to have higher creatinine levels than women.
High levels of creatinine may indicate kidney disorders. Possible causes of the kidney dysfunction include-
- Kidney infection
- Glomerulonephritis, inflammation of the kidney structure
- Kidney stone, that blocks the urinary tract
- Kidney failure
Pregnancy, dehydration, and consuming large amounts of animal protein (either through food or nutritional supplements) can temporarily raise the creatinine levels in blood. High intensity exercise can also increase creatinine levels.
Diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease can damage the organs, leading to increased creatinine levels. Old age and family history of kidney disorders are also countable.
Test Necessity
Doctors may prescribe a creatinine test if someone is having the symptoms-
- Fatigue
- Puffiness around the eyes
- Swelling in feet and/or ankles
- Loss of appetite
- Frequent and painful urination
- Foamy or dark coloured urine
Test Preparation
You may not eat or drink anything (except water) for several hours before the test. Your doctor may suggest you not eat meat before the test. It is advisable to consult your doctor to know the details about the preparation.
During the Creatinine Test
To collect your blood sample, a phlebotomist from PharEasy Labs will pay you a visit during the slot you chose when you booked the creatinine test. Our phlebotomists use an advanced tool to help them find that vein in your arm from which the blood sample will be drawn. It's called a vein finder. Safety precautions are maintained and only new needles and syringes are used. Once the blood has been drawn it will be sealed in a sterilised container and transported to the lab in an ice box.

What are BUN and Creatinine tests?
A creatinine test and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) test are often done together to see if your kidneys are filtering blood normally. The BUN and Creatinine tests measure the ratio of BUN to Creatinine. Having a ratio above the normal indicates your kidneys are not getting enough blood supply, and could have conditions, such as dehydration, congestive heart failure, or gastrointestinal bleeding.
What factors will affect creatinine levels?
Excessive exercise, liver cirrhosis, pregnancy, insufficient muscle mass, consumption of too much protein can cause a change in creatinine levels. That is why, before the test, you are not to exercise strenuously or eat a protein-rich meal.
Is low creatinine level in blood as worrying as high creatinine level in blood?
If any test result is not within the normal range, your doctor may suggest lifestyle changes, medication or other treatment. Low creatinine levels in blood may indicate malnutrition, any disease that causes muscle wasting, or rapid weight loss due to an underlying disorder that may require investigation. Seek guidance from your doctor.
