Unfortunately, I don;t know of any supplements that will actually lower the Creatinine. Your regular veterinarian may have better insight into the listed product. I don't recommend to start any supplements or products without the guidance of your veterinarian. Usually, a high CREAT is related to kidney disease though a cancer in the kidneys could also cause it. Here is a link about kidney disease that discusses special diets that contain low protein, high omega fatty acids and high antioxidants. Fluid therapy is also important though if Ludo has low blood protein, this should not be started until his protein levels are normal and stable: https://www.petcoach.co/article/kidney-disease-treatment-for-dogs-and-cats/ The ascites could be related to low protein levels in the blood, liver disease, cancer or intestinal disease. Kidney disease that is advanced can cause low blood protein. Kidney disease and cancer are not infectious. I recommend to have Ludo examined frequently by the veterinarian to test his kidney values and his blood protein levels. I hope this helps and best of luck.
