The need for treatment for creatinine of 130 μmol/L depends mainly on the cause of the elevated creatinine. If it is caused by physiological reasons such as high muscle content or eating more meat, creatinine may return to normal after adjusting lifestyle habits, and no treatment is needed. If it is caused by acute kidney injury or chronic renal insufficiency, creatinine will need to be treated according to the cause.
