Does Drink Water Can Lower the High Creatinine for Dialysis Patients

It is a common phenomenon for the dialysis with a high creatinine level, and some of the dialysis patients have the same doubt, if drink water can lower the high cretinine? Read the following information, you can find the answer.

What Is Creatinine?

Creatinine is a chemical waste product in the blood that passes through the kidneys to be filtered and eliminated in urine. The chemical waste is a by-product of normal muscle contractions. Creatinine is made from creatine, a supplier of energy to the muscle.

Women usually have lower creatinine levels compared to men because women have less muscle tissue. Among adults withoutkidney disease, men have approximately 0.6 to 1.2 milligrams/deciliters (mg/dL) of creatinine, whereas women have between 0.5 to 1.1 mg/dL of creatinine.

Generally, creatinine levels in the blood remain unchanged from day to day because muscle mass usually stays the same. Taking certain medicines, eating a lot of meat or building muscles through weight training or other exercise may show higher amounts of creatinine, even in those who don’t have chronic kidney disease (CKD). Creatinine levels can be lower than normal for people who are elderly, malnourished or vegetarian.

Creatinine and chronic kidney disease

When there is kidney damage or kidney disease, and the kidneys are not able to filter waste efficiently, there will likely be a rise in creatinine levels in the blood. For adults with kidney disease, dialysis is recommended when creatinine levels reach 10.0 mg/dL. For babies with kidney disease, dialysis is recommended when their creatinine level is 2.0 mg/dL.


One of the symptoms is the edema, so the patients who have the serious edema should control the amount of the water. Too much water intake can aggravate the disease. You don’t should rely on the water to lower the high creatienine, you should find effective therapies to lower the creatinine. There are a lot of the Chinese medical therapies can lower the high creatinine for the dialysis patients, such as the Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotehrapy.
