is the glomerular filtration rate (GFR).The glomerular filtration rate is the flow rate of filtered fluid through the kidney. The creatinine clearance rate (C_Cr or CrCl) is the volume of blood plasma that is cleared of creatinine per unit time and is a useful measure for approximating the GFR. Creatinine clearance exceeds GFR due to creatinine secretion, which can be blocked by cimetidine.
