Creatine Monohydrate Supplementation
Hi, I have researched online regarding side effects of creatine monohydrate and most of the research on academic studies doesn’t seem to be have negative health side effects to supplementing with creatine monohydrate (~5g/day). I have not had any negative symptoms so far and latest health checkup results in 2017 does not indicate any negative indicators of health issues (been supplementing creatine for >5 years)
May I ask if there are any potential sides effects/negative consequences for supplementing with creatine daily with the above dosage (~5g/day) in the long term? Thanks

Good day! Thank you for contacting us.
We understand your concern regarding the side effects of Creatine is taken more than it should in a day. Upon reading, it is found that in a healthy person can take up to 2-10g of creatine per day. However, you will have to take it according what kind of activities you are doing. It is best for you to consult a dietitian regarding the matter.
There are few potential side effects of the creatine, such as:
- It can worsen the kidney disease
- Creatine can cause a mania episode in a person who have bipolar disorder
This is our general answer regarding your inquiry. It is best for you to talk with a doctor or a dietitian personally to get a clear picture regarding your question. Alternatively, you can contact our doctors at (DoctorOnCall) for an online consultation. We value your privacy. Thank you.
