A member asked:

Would like to take creatine monohydrate will it be safe? i have a tendency of high b.p. for 2 months in winters not on any medication

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe no: People with kidney disease, high blood pressure, or liver disease should not take creatine. I think the key question is do you have high BP or not?
