Creatinine: mg/dL ⇄ µmol/L
Serum creatinine: µmol/L = mg/dL × 88.4 · mg/dL = µmol/L ÷ 88.4.

The factor comes from the molar mass of creatinine (113.12 g/mol): 1 mg/dL = 10 mg/L ÷ 113.12 × 1,000 = 88.4 µmol/L. This page converts units only; it does not estimate kidney function or interpret results.
FAQ
How do I convert creatinine mg/dL to µmol/L?
Multiply by 88.4. Example: 1.0 mg/dL = 88.4 µmol/L.
How do I convert µmol/L to mg/dL?
Divide by 88.4. Example: 100 µmol/L ÷ 88.4 = 1.13 mg/dL.
Is µmol/L the same as umol/L or micromol/L?
Yes — all three mean micromoles per liter.
Which countries use µmol/L?
The UK, Europe, Canada, Australia and most countries outside the US report creatinine in µmol/L; US labs typically use mg/dL.
