High creatinine level is a common concerned question of kidney patients. Does creatinine level go up when kidneys are not working effectively? After reading this article, you will find out the answer.

Creatinine level goes up when your kidneys are impaired over 50%.

Our kidneys have immense compensative capacity. Under the normal circumstance, there are only a small part of kidney tissues working to filter waste products from the body, while the remaining ones are in store. When some kidney tissues are damaged, the remaining ones will replace the damaged ones to work. That is why when your kidneys are damaged slightly, they can also keep your creatinine level into normal range. But when the damaged ones are beyond the stored ones, your creatinine level will increase quickly.
