A member asked:
What does high creatinine in the urine mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good question: Creatinine in the urine, like in the blood, comes from the muscles. The urine creatinine can be collected for 24 hours to calculate the creatinine clearance. A sample of urine creatinine and protein can be used to estimate the 24h urine loss of protein.
