What is in ATP Science Creapure Creatine
The ingredient list is one line: 100% Creapure creatine monohydrate. There is no flavour, sweetener or filler, and the nutrition panel shows 0 kJ per serve. Creapure is a branded creatine monohydrate from Alzchem, based in Trostberg, Germany. Creapure partner packs carry a quality seal with a code, and the code on ATP Science's tub (18AP16) returns ATP Science as the brand on Creapure's own code checker.
Why creatine monohydrate. The AIS places creatine monohydrate in Group A of its Sports Supplement Framework, meaning strong evidence for use in specific situations in sport. Its fact sheet says creatine combined with resistance training improves training outcomes such as strength, and that there is no scientific reason to take a form of creatine other than monohydrate. The International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) position stand calls creatine monohydrate the most effective ergogenic nutritional supplement available to athletes for high-intensity exercise capacity and lean body mass during training.
Safety. The ISSN reports that short and long-term creatine use is safe and well tolerated in healthy people. The AIS notes one common side effect: a gain in body mass, mostly water held in muscle, of up to about 1 or 2 kg. It fades slowly over 4 to 6 weeks after you stop.
Vegetarians and vegans. The AIS notes that people with the lowest muscle creatine, such as vegetarians, have the largest potential increase from supplementing.
Who it suits
- Gym-goers doing regular resistance training.
- Team and sprint sport athletes who make repeated high-intensity efforts.
- Vegetarians and vegans, who tend to get little creatine from food.
- Anyone who wants plain creatine with no flavour or sweetener to add to a shake or drink.
Who should check first
- Pregnant or breastfeeding, and children under 15: the label says it is not suitable for pregnant or lactating women or children under 15 and should only be used under medical or dietetic supervision.
- Medical conditions or medication: check with your doctor before you start.
- Weight-class athletes: plan around the possible 1 to 2 kg body mass gain the AIS describes.
- Drug-tested athletes: see the HASTA FAQ below and our guide to supplements for drug-tested athletes.
How to use ATP Science Creapure Creatine
The tub directions: mix 1 heaped scoop (about 5 g) into a liquid of your choice, stir or shake, and drink straight away. ATP Science suggests taking 3 to 5 g straight after your workout with a protein.
The AIS describes two ways to build up muscle creatine:
- Daily dose: 3 to 5 g a day, which raises muscle creatine to saturation over about 4 weeks.
- Loading (optional): about 5 g four times a day with meals for 5 days, then 3 to 5 g a day.
The AIS suggests taking creatine with a meal that includes carbohydrate. Take it every day, including rest days. At 5 g a day the 250 g tub lasts 50 days; at 3 g a day it lasts about 83 days. Our page on how to take creatine covers loading and timing in more detail.
How it compares
- Legit Creatine Monohydrate: unflavoured creatine monohydrate, listed by Supps247 in 300 g, 500 g and 1 kg bags, so it suits people who want a bigger pack.
- Optimum Nutrition Micronized Creatine: micronised creatine monohydrate, listed by Supps247 in 100, 200 and 400 serve tubs.
- R1 Creatine by Rule 1: 30 serves, with Blue Raspberry and Fruit Punch flavours as well as Unflavoured, for people who would rather drink creatine on its own.

ATP Science Creapure review: our verdict
This is a simple, trustworthy creatine for people who want the Creapure name on the tub. You get one ingredient, no flavour or sweetener, and a Creapure seal code that checks out on Creapure's own code checker. It suits lifters, sprint and team sport athletes, and vegetarians and vegans, who the AIS says have the largest potential increase in muscle creatine. The trade-off is pack size: the 250 g tub gives 50 serves at 5 g, so daily users will go through it faster than a bigger bag. Creapure is still creatine monohydrate, so you are choosing the brand and the seal, not a stronger effect.
FAQs
How much creatine is in a scoop of ATP Science Creapure?
The tub label gives one heaped scoop of about 5 g of creatine monohydrate. Some newer ATP Science graphics list a 3 g serve instead. Both sit within the AIS daily range of 3 to 5 g.
Do I need to load creatine?
No. The AIS says taking 3 to 5 g a day without loading raises muscle creatine to saturation in about 4 weeks. Loading with about 20 g a day, split into four doses for 5 days, just gets there faster.
Will creatine make me gain weight?
Possibly a little. The AIS says creatine increases water stored in muscle, which can add up to about 1 or 2 kg of body mass while muscle creatine stays high. It returns to normal over 4 to 6 weeks after you stop.
Is ATP Science Creapure creatine vegan?
The only ingredient is Creapure creatine monohydrate, and ATP Science includes the product in its vegan supplements range. As always, check the label on your tub.
When should I take creatine?
ATP Science suggests 3 to 5 g straight after training with a protein, and the AIS suggests taking it with a carbohydrate-rich meal. Either way, take it daily: the AIS says 3 to 5 g a day builds muscle creatine over about 4 weeks.
Is ATP Science creatine HASTA certified?
ATP Science Creatine is listed on the HASTA certified product list with tested batch numbers. Certification applies batch by batch, so check that the batch number on your tub appears on the HASTA listing, and follow Sport Integrity Australia advice.
Label details checked against the official ATP Science product page on 19 October 2026. Formulas can change, so always read the label on the product you buy and follow the directions.
