Dear Mr. lybrate-user Do consult a physician/ cardiologist for your medications. Although the S. Creatinine is marginally elevated it is difficult to comment with a single value. These mild changes in kidney function could be because of longstanding hypertension on the kidneys. With the fact that you have been having leg swelling also, dose adjustment or change of medications may be needed.
