How to prepare

  1. 1
    Fasting required Not usually required, but avoid a large meat-heavy meal right before the test.
  2. 2
    Rest Do not do hard exercise for 2 days. Heavy workouts break down muscles. This breakdown releases more creatinine into your blood.
  3. 3
    Inform our technician about any medications, ACE inhibitors, or supplements (like creatine) you take.
  4. 4
    Stay hydrated Drink water before your appointment.
