Actually no you can't. The melatonin in the creatine reacts badly with the branch chain tri glycerides in the protein ( unless its micro filtered whey ) which in turn causes the muscle cells to decrease in size and in some cases even kills off some of the mitochondria in the muscle spindles, of course this means less muscle / strength in the long run and will significantly decrease performance by about 23.5 %.

Basically a big no-no. :D

The latest research says 23.6%. Get with the times :D
