Drank creatine then my mouth became really dry.?

I followed the instruction. I mixed one scoop of creatine with 8 oz water. I drank allot of water before drinking the creatine. After 20 minutes i started to feel really tired. I came to the gym and i started to have a really dry mouth. I kept drinking allot of water and my mouth was completely dry. Dry mouth lasted for about 30 mins and all the symptoms went away. Did creatine make me dehydrated. I drank so much water it almost made me trow up.

    Cut back on some of the creatine; take a smaller amount

    Maybe you drank too much water. This can paradoxically make you dehydrated because it washes out your electrolytes. And sometimes when you drink too much you just feel more and more thirsty, never satisfied.

    Creatine increases a bit your water needs, but not that much. Maybe 10 or 20 cl more per day.
