Hi There

I've read your query and I understand your concern.

I would like to tell you that your patient's serum creatinine is in normal range and it is nothing to be worry about. None of the medicine effect Creatinine level.

It is advisable to drink plenty of water everyday, one should not be dehydrated and repeat the Serum creatinine after 15 days .

Hopefully I answered all your queries
Wish You Good Luck
