Best time to take Creatine?

[M302_Imola]

I just got some CEE creatine pills and I'm wondering when the best time to take them is? I have taken creatine before but it has been a long time. I was thinking about taking them an hour before my workout with my pre-workout meal and w/ my caffeine (400mg) and NO2 (AAKG 1500mg) pills...would this be the best time or should I wait until after my workout? The bottle gives no directions on when to take this product, all it says is the serving size is 2 pills which equals 1500mg CEE. Is 1500mg a reasonable dose?

Thanks bro, excuse me for my nooby mistake of not searching 1st...that is a great thread that answered most of my questions.

Can you answer my question regarding what amount of CEE (in mg) should be consumed post workout? Is the suggested 1500mg enough? Is CEE comparable to monohydrate on a mg per mg basis?

CEE just simply isn't as good as CM. But the standard dosage ranges from 3-5 grams, 1.5g is on the low side.

the usual dosage for creatine saturation of muscle cells is 5 grams per day, thats after all the bulls*** loading phases. Best time to take it would be after you w/o. Insulin spike with ur carbs will drive it straight in ur body. Only time i wuld take creatine before i workout if it was a CEE and NO combined drink.
