Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
You want to start creatine supplements to increase your muscle mass.It is best when used along with protein supplements. I would advise you to get your liver and renal function tests done routinely to rule out any problem before starting on any such supplements.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
