Side Effects of Creatine for Fibromyalgia
Creatine is a natural substance that is very useful for us to function, but even though it is organically present in our body, it may still pose some adverse effects that are mostly temporary.
Here are some of its side effects:
- A rapid increase in weight
- Decrease in appetite
- Hypertension
- Kidney illnesses
- Light-headedness
- Liver disorders
- Muscle spasms
- Stomach ashes, loose bowel movement, and nausea
People who have liver or kidney disease should avoid consuming creatine as it may worsen your condition when mixed with other medications such as:
- Cimetidine
- Diuretics and more
- Ibuprofen
- Naproxen Sodium
In Conclusion
If you are planning to consume creatine supplements, start with a low dosage, and observe how your body reacts to it. If no side effects are observed, slowly increase the dosage to your requirement. It is best to consult your doctor for proper and effective dosage.
