Thanks.

what kind of side effect are you asking about, not heard of anyone having any trouble with creatine, also what dosage a day are you referring to as well?? here is a link about creatine if you have questions about how and how much to take, hope this helps.

I just heard that it could increase blood pressure with the recommended amount.

nope doesnt increase bp at all. you retain water but its in the muscles so very harmless.

if you dose it at 5g preworkout and 5g post workout you will be fine. also make sure to drink atleast a gallon of water ed.

^^ as said, a little bloat is common but other than that nothin. Drink a lot of water.
