What are considered normal creatinine levels?

Answer by  VCraig (88)

The normal range for blood creatinine levels is 0.8 to 1.4mg/dL. If creatinine measures greater than 1.4mg/dL it usually means there is a problem with clearance from the kidneys. It is also important to know this varies depending on each person's size and muscle mass as well as gender (as males typically have more muscle mass)

Answer by  Stacia (91)

In a healthy adult, normal blood creatinine levels should fall somewhere between 0.6 to 1.2 mg per dL in men and 0.5 and 1.5 mg per dL in women.

Answer by  HarryRex (53)

That depends on what unit's they are reported in. In mg/dL (US) 0. 5-1. 0mg/dL for women and 0. 7-1. 2mg/dL for men. In μmol/L (Canada) it's 45-90μmol/L for women and 60-110μmol/L for men

Creatinine is a chemical waste product from muscle metabolism. Creatinine is a marker for kidney function. Normal creatinine levels are 0.6 to 1.2 mg/dl (milligrams per deciliter) for males. Females normal creatinine values are 0.5 to 1.1 mg/dl.

An important measurement of kidney function, creatinine levels can vary slightly depending on the laboratory. Females generally have a lower level than males. Normal range is 0. 8 to 1. 4 mg/dL.

Creatine is a normal by product of muscle activity. For a normal adult male the normal range is between 0. 6 to 1. 2 milligrams per deciliter. For an adult female the normal range is 0. 5 to 1. 1 milligrams per deciliter. This may vary depending on factors like age and physical activity.

Adult men should have between 0.6 and 1.2 milligrams of creatinine in one deciliter of blood. Women should have one half, to 1.1 mg of creatinine in a deciliter of blood.
