Water: the quickest way to lower serum creatinine is to drink more water however depending upon the reason for the elevated creatinine you may need to have further treatment or withdrawal of medications which can elevate the creatinine as well

Can't reduce to norm: If you have chronic elevation of creatine possible to reduce slightly but never to normal , is an indication of progressive renal disease If you have B P (hypertension ) , diabetes , control it normal levels along with healthy diet , exercises . Consult os nephrologist and prevent further damage

Creatinine: Creatinine level may be low with low muscle mass and low protein diet as it is a by product of the protein. If one has a problem in clearing the creatinine secondary to kidney problem, restricted protein diet is recommended. There is really no medicine to reduce creatinine level, A consultation with dietician/nutritionist would be helpful.
