A member asked:

What reduces creatine and potassium levels?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No straight answer: creatinine and potassium levels indicate how well your heart and kidneys function. If you have heart or kidney disease these would have to be fixed first. They are usually elevated when one of those organs is sick
