I have had creatinine levels of 108 which dropped to 99 dr said it was fine but on metformin and understand that thi s is a contributory reason ?

Your doctor is right: You did not specify the units of creatiniine, if i understand the results, your levels are within normal limits and you can take metformin. You are right to be concerned, but your creatinine is okay for this medication.
