Can Erythropoietin increase creatinine levels ?

Can Erythropoietin increase creatinine levels ?

Hi, My dad is 66 yrs old and has kidney desease for the past 5 yrs. His creatinine levels are around 6.5 and his hemoglobin level is around 8. His doctor has advised him to take Erythropoietin shots (a set of 4 shots each dosage being 4000ml) and after taking them, he has noticed that creatine levels have gone up. Can Erythropoietin increase creatinine levels in his case ?  Appreciate your input. Thanks
