It is bad for you liver and kidney if taken in high doses, so make sure you read the package to see how much you can safely consume. Some people experience side effects such as diarrhea and muscle cramps.It can be more harmful if taken with other things that dehydrate you or damage your kidney. For example taking caffeine and creatine can be harmful because they both dehydrate you. The Food and Drug Administration(FDA) recommends you talk to your health care provider before taking creatine.
