I am taking roughly 5 gr daily (one heaping teaspoon supposedly) and divide it over two to four doses.
I can offer the following today-
My muscles are definitely stronger and seem to be adding bulk Thus far, the greatest improvement has been in the areas with the most damage. I am sleeping great except for trips to the loo. Since creatine is processed by the kidney that is no surprise. My wife noticed this morning that my "old voice is back."
I am staying up until 11:00 and still able to omit the walking stick getting to bed. Meds are working longer (was two hours but now up to three to four. Am doing more even with the heat.
