MSK & Low Urine Creatinine Levels

Due to urine testing for alcohol/drugs it is necessary for me to keep my urine creatinine well above 20.  Has anyone with MSK had any issues with low urine creatinine and/or any suggestions?

I am little confused honestly  I am pretty sure that your creatinine rate is given in decimals??

Yes, serum creatinine range for PACLAB is .60 - 1.20 and mine is .59, but there is no therapeutic range for urine creatinine, except that anything under 20 is considered a diluted u/a for the purpose of alc/drug screening.  My avg. urine creat. is around 50.
