Creatine is safe and effective, providing
1. You are in good h=ealth
2. You follow the dosage recommendations
3. You drink lots of water
4. You don't stay on it forever (4-6 weeks at a time is OK).


You can stay on creatine forever without any negative effects (creatine is in all animal products so even if you stop taking it you're still getting some from your food). The dosage doesn't matter at all, you could take 50g a day and it wouldn't be any different than 5g a day. Your body breaks down excess creatine into creatinine and it is excreted in the urine. Other than making your wallet lighter, I have yet to see a single study showing any negative side effects from taking alot of creatine.
