A member asked:
What are the causes of high reading of creatinine in the urine [not blood]?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A lot of factors: Your kidney function and its filtration rate, what you eat, age, the amount of your muscle mass, liver function, the rate of cell breakdown in your body (catabolism) are some factors that will influence how much creatinine you pee out in the urine.
