A member asked:

Can i get kidney stones from drinking 1000 miligrams of creatine a day?

May contribute: Large amounts of creatinine may lead to relative dehydration, which in turn can lead to stone formation. Drink plenty of water if you choose to take creatine.

Perhaps: I've seen patients who develop protein "stones" from high protein diets due to lack of adequate water intake so if you are using supplements i would recommend making sure an adequate amount of fluid is also being ingested.
