Hi there, everything that I've ever read about creatine suggests that it has many benefits. However It can increase the level of creatanine in your blood therefore affecting kidney function blood test results such as urea & eGFR. Its probably a good idea to either stop the creatine prior to a blood test or tell the health care professional that you are taking it.
