How to lower high creatinine level for kidney failure patients? This is question which is concerned by all the kidney failure patients with high creatinine level.

High creatinine level which also means the serum creatinine level is higher than the normal level 0.5-1.2 mg/dl. As we know, creatinine is the waste product of muscle metabolism, which is mainly excreted by kidneys. When the kidneys can work normally and the kidney function is more than 50%, the creatinine can be excreted normally. However, when the kidneys are damaged severely and the kidney function are less than 50%, the creatinine level will be higher. Therefore, high creatinine level is often regarded as a sign of severely reduced kidney function.

When the creatinine level is higher, it means that there are also some other metabolisms building up in blood, which will cause some bad symptoms for kidney failure patients, such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, high blood pressure, swelling and skin itching.
