Hi, my father has cml and is at the moment having dasatinib twice a week. Lately his creatine level raised to 1.7.he is having half a piece of amla (the amla stored in a plastic contained with jaggery for a long time, also called as nelikka arishtam in malayalam) everyday. Will having this everyday affect his kidney or his health in general. He is 61 years old. And how can he make his creatine level normal.

Having gooseberry will not affect his health or medications .reduce your protein intake. Research shows eating large amounts of protein can increase creatinine levels, at least temporarily.
