i started taking creatine and just barely finished the dosing pd. where i have to take 20g a day for 5 days. but i noticed is that i started get more acne during these 5 days. is this a result of the creatine? sometimes i would mix it w/my protien shake when i was in a rush.
what do you guys think?
ps…now that im done w/20g a day. is it best to take creatine before or after workout?
Even though it does not seem to make any sense, i also see an increase in acne form taking creatine…but you will be fine just get some good body wash.
I prefer to take 5-10g of creatine after i workout with my post-workout drink, but i know a lot of friends who swear by taking it before. Either way i think you will be fine.

Absolutely not.
Doesn’t matter.
After, in your post-workout shake. On days you don’t lift, take it first thing in the morning with juice or a protein shake, a while before breakfast.
thanks on the feedback guys.
Many believe the loading phase is unecessary. Rather, its best to take 5 grams daily after your workout for optimal results.
