3017250
Creatinine is a waste product from the normal breakdown of muscle tissue. As your body makes it, it's filtered through your kidneys and expelled in urine.[2] The creatinine urine test measures the amount of creatinine in urine. This test is done to see how well your kidneys are working.[1]
The normal range is around 20 – 275 mg/dL in women and 20 – 320 mg/dL in men but this measurement may vary based on body weight and lean muscle mass.[3]
Normal ranges may also vary by lab.
