Creatinine mg/dL to mmol/L & µmol/L Conversion Calculator

Creatinine conversion: to convert creatinine from mg/dL to mmol/L, multiply by 0.0884 (or divide by 11.31). Most labs report creatinine in µmol/L, so to get µmol/L multiply mg/dL by 88.4. Example: creatinine 1.5 mg/dL = 0.133 mmol/L = 133 µmol/L.

Tap µmol/L in the creatinine converter to get the result in micromoles, or switch the direction to convert creatinine mmol/L to mg/dL.

Creatinine Conversion Factor

The creatinine conversion factor comes from its molar mass, 113.12 g/mol. The same factors apply to serum creatinine (also written S. creatinine, SCr, Cr or Crea on lab reports).

How to Convert Creatinine from mg/dL to mmol/L

  1. Take your creatinine result in mg/dL, for example 1.2 mg/dL.
  2. Multiply by 0.0884 to get mmol/L: 1.2 × 0.0884 = 0.106 mmol/L.
  3. Or multiply by 88.4 to get µmol/L, the unit most labs outside the US use: 1.2 × 88.4 = 106 µmol/L.

Creatinine mmol/L to mg/dL and µmol/L to mg/dL

To convert creatinine from mmol/L to mg/dL, multiply by 11.31. If your result is in µmol/L (also written umol/L or micromol/L), divide by 88.4. Creatinine values are small in mmol/L (about 0.05–0.12 for healthy adults) and in the tens to hundreds in µmol/L. For a dedicated tool, use the creatinine mmol/L to mg/dL calculator.

Creatinine depends on muscle mass, age and sex, so ranges vary between laboratories. Doctors judge kidney function mainly with the eGFR, which is calculated from creatinine. The CKD-EPI equation uses creatinine in mg/dL, so a µmol/L result is divided by 88.4 first. Use the reference range on your own report and discuss results with your doctor.

Serum vs Urine Creatinine Units

Serum (blood) creatinine and urine creatinine use the same factor, but urine values are much higher and are usually reported in mmol/L or mg/dL. For urine results, use the urine creatinine mg/dL to mmol/L converter.

In Arabic: تحويل الكرياتينين من mg/dL إلى mmol/L: اضرب في 0.0884، ومن mg/dL إلى µmol/L: اضرب في 88.4. In Spanish, creatinina mg/dL a mmol/L uses the same factors.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert creatinine from mg/dL to mmol/L?

Multiply the mg/dL value by 0.0884 (or divide by 11.31). For example, 1.0 mg/dL = 0.088 mmol/L.

What is the creatinine conversion factor?

1 mg/dL = 88.4 µmol/L = 0.0884 mmol/L. In the other direction, 1 mmol/L = 11.31 mg/dL.

What is creatinine 1.5 mg/dL in mmol/L?

1.5 mg/dL × 0.0884 = 0.133 mmol/L, or 133 µmol/L. This is above the usual normal range for most adults.

What is creatinine 1.3 mg/dL in mmol/L?

1.3 mg/dL = 0.115 mmol/L = 115 µmol/L.

What is creatinine 2 mg/dL in mmol/L?

2.0 mg/dL = 0.177 mmol/L = 177 µmol/L.

How do I convert creatinine from mmol/L to mg/dL?

Multiply mmol/L by 11.31. For example, 0.1 mmol/L × 11.31 = 1.13 mg/dL.

How do I convert creatinine µmol/L to mg/dL?

Divide by 88.4. For example, 120 µmol/L ÷ 88.4 = 1.36 mg/dL.

Is serum creatinine the same as creatinine, SCr, Cr or Crea?

Yes. These are all names for the blood creatinine test and use the same conversion factors.
