What is creatinine?

Creatinine is a waste product that is produced in the body as a result of normal muscle metabolism. It is generated from the breakdown of creatine, a molecule that plays a crucial role in supplying energy to muscles during physical activity. Creatinine is produced at a relatively constant rate and is released into the bloodstream, where it is eventually filtered out of the body by the kidneys.

The level of creatinine in the blood is a significant indicator of kidney function. Healthy kidneys efficiently filter creatinine from the blood and excrete it in urine. When kidney function is compromised, such as in cases of kidney disease or dysfunction, the levels of creatinine in the blood can rise, indicating reduced filtration capacity. Elevated creatinine levels can be a sign of impaired kidney function and are often used as a diagnostic marker to assess renal health.

What influences creatinine levels?

Creatinine levels can also be influenced by factors such as age, gender, muscle mass, and diet. A single elevated creatinine level may not necessarily indicate kidney disease but may require further evaluation and monitoring over time to make an accurate diagnosis.
