A member asked:
My mom has lung cancer. the doctor told her she needed to gain weight. is taking a creatine supplement safe for her?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Creatine supplements: Creatine supplements are used more often in people with normal kidney function and athletes and more research is needed to support it's use for any longterm benefit. Some patients tolerate it well and do gain some strength but up to 30 % people may not respond well to it. I hope she feels better soon. Take care.
