Thanks for asking to healthcaremagic.I understand your concern.
It could indicate that the kidney function is affected to some extent.
Normal range 0.5-1.2mg/dl.The below suggestions would help reduce the creatinine levels.
1)Treating with lowest effective doses of medications for your disease conditions(diabetes,Hypertension etc).
2)Avoid eating meat and excessive dairy products.
3)Also effective treatment for prostate enlargement to be continued as it can aggravate the kidney's dysfunction by obstructive pathology.
4)Increase intake of clear fluids,monitoring your urine output .
However consider talking to your treating physician regarding this.Hope this information helps you.Take care.
