Dosage form

Dosage form of the supplement.

- Powder. Creatine in powder form is convenient in two ways. Firstly, the drug can be dosed at your discretion; The delivery package usually includes a measuring scoop for a set of individual servings, but if the standard dosage does not suit you for some reason, you can change it at your discretion. Secondly, when consumed, such creatine should be diluted evenly in a large amount of liquid (most types of creatine do not dissolve in water), and this form of use promotes high-quality absorption. As a result, most modern creatine-based supplements are available in powder form.

Capsules. Convenient dosage forms both in terms of drug usage and storage. Thanks to their shape with a characteristic shell, the capsules completely deliver the substance into the body, minimizing its losses during transportation through the digestive tract. Capsule creatine is absorbed very well, but slowly (compared to powder preparations). The fact is that it takes some time for the capsule shell to break down.

- Tablets. This dosage form is convenient because when used, you do not need to measure each portion with a special scoop, stir the powder in liquid, etc. - just swallow the required number of tablets and wash them down with water. In addition, some tablets are made effervescent, which makes them even easier to use. On the...other hand, creatine in this form is absorbed somewhat less well than in powder form, so tablets are much less common.

Weight

Product weight excluding packaging. It is indicated exclusively for powders (see "Dosage form"). Knowing the daily rate, you can calculate how many days this or that package will last.

Number of capsules/tablets

The total number of capsules or tablets (see "Dosage form") in the package. Knowing the daily rate, you can calculate how many days this or that package will last.

Servings

The number of individual servings contained in the package of the supplement. It corresponds to the weight or number of tablets/capsules divided by the size of one standard serving. Of course, if you deviate from this dosage, the number of servings will change accordingly.

Dosage

The number of capsules or tablets corresponding to one standard serving of the supplement. With this data, it is possible to estimate the total number of servings per package if this information is not provided by the manufacturer.

The standard dosage is indicated per "average" person. In some cases (for example, with a very small or very large body weight), deviations from the indicated dosage are allowed, but only on the recommendation of a specialist.

Dosage

The amount of powder corresponding to the standard portion of the supplement. With this data, you can estimate the total number of servings if this information is not provided by the manufacturer.

Daily rate

The daily norm of the drug, produced in the dosage form of a powder.

Recall that at the initial stage of taking creatine (the so-called loading phase), it is recommended to take it in high doses, and then the dosage is reduced to a “supporting” level. As a daily norm, manufacturers usually indicate the amount of the drug in the maintenance phase. Also, note that the format of taking creatine can be different: some formulations are designed to be taken once a day, others two to three times a day. Accordingly, the size of the daily allowance may correspond to one or more servings.
