Hello, serum creatinine is a parameter to check for kidney functions. It's an indication whether kidney is able to excrete the waste products produced in body. Normal range for creatinine is till 1.2. If it's going higher than that it's a matter of concern as it may show kidney is not functioning as it should be. There are multiple reasons for raised creatinine ranging from infections to autoimmune disorders affecting kidney which may require several investigations to be done. I hope I answered your query. Thank you
