How much creatine is optimal?

Sources:

A typical daily dose is 5 grams of creatine monohydrate, adjusted roughly for body size; larger people may take up to 10 grams.

  • 185–250 pounds: About 10 grams daily is a reasonable guideline; smaller people may need 3–5 grams.
  • No precise weight formula: There is no established, consistent formula for dosing per pound or kilogram, so these are approximate ranges.
  • Loading and timing: Loading is unnecessary; take a daily dose, and the time of day does not matter.
