Creatine Monohydrate & Creatine Gummies

Creatine monohydrate in Malta – powder, capsules and gummies, from €15.99

Creatine is the most studied sports supplement there is, and the EU-authorised claim is simple: creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise. The effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3 g. That is why it is a staple for gym training, sprinting and team sports – and why it is the supplement we sell most of at Prime Health Shop, in the shop in Tarxien and online with next day delivery in Malta and fast delivery to Gozo.

We stock creatine monohydrate from Leap Nutrition, Optimum Nutrition, Applied Nutrition and Myprotein. Everything below is on the shelf unless the product page says sold out; the table shows what you pay per 100 g and how long a tub lasts at 3 g a day, so you can compare properly.

Creatine prices in Malta – what we stock

Prices checked 21 October 2026; the price on the product page is always the one that counts. Crossed-out prices are the maker's recommended price.

Which creatine should I buy?

If you want the best value: the Leap Creahead 1 kg at €36 – €3.60 per 100 g, almost a year's supply, and the one most of our customers buy again. Leap Nutrition is a Maltese brand.

If you want a known international brand at a good price: Optimum Nutrition Micronised Creatine 317 g at €20 (recommended price €28.99). Micronised means a finer powder that mixes more easily.

If you do not want to mix powder: Applied Nutrition Creatine 3000 capsules, €15.99 for 120 – three capsules give 3 g. The cheapest way to start, but at 40 days a pot it costs more per day than a tub of powder.

If you want a flavour: Applied Nutrition Icy Blue Raz or Cherry & Apple, or Optimum Nutrition Platinum Creatine Plus. You pay more per gram for the taste.

Gummies: Applied Nutrition in three flavours. Easy to take, but check the serving size on the pack – it takes several gummies to reach 3 g, so they are the dearest way to take creatine.

How to take creatine

3 to 5 g a day, every day, with plenty of water. Timing does not matter much; taking it every day does. A loading phase (20 g a day for the first week) is optional, not necessary. Unflavoured powder has almost no taste and goes into water, juice or a protein shake. Creatine monohydrate is made synthetically, not from meat, so it is suitable for vegetarians and vegans – check the capsule shell on capsule products.

Creatine FAQ

Is creatine safe? Creatine monohydrate is one of the most studied supplements and is permitted as a food supplement in the EU at 3 g a day. If you have a kidney condition or take medication, ask your doctor first. Not for under-18s unless a doctor says so.

Micronised or normal? Same creatine, finer powder. Micronised mixes better and settles less. Both work.

Does creatine cause water retention? Creatine draws water into the muscle cell, so the scale can go up a little in the first weeks.

Powder, capsules or gummies? Powder is cheapest per gram. Capsules and gummies are convenient but cost more per 3 g dose – see the table above.
