If a patient is currently experiencing elevated creatine kinase, it is important to find out what is causing the elevated creatine kinase if you want to further reduce the creatine kinase. If a patient has elevated creatine kinase due to strenuous exercise, it is important to rest and avoid activity in the near future to avoid further aggravation of muscle damage. If the elevated creatine kinase is caused by hypothyroidism, it is recommended that the patient be treated for hypothyroidism, and only when the hypothyroidism improves can creatine kinase be gradually reduced. In addition, if the patient’s creatine kinase is elevated due to acute myocardial infarction, this condition should be combined with antiplatelet and coronary interventions to stop further myocardial necrosis before creatine kinase can be reduced.
