Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

From your query I understood that you want to know that after how much time of drinking a glass of wine you should go for test which shows normal results.

A glass of wine metabolized roughly in 24 hours from the body. However liver enzyme may be elevated up to 2 to 10 days depending upon overall alcohol use, frequency of alcohol, general medical condition and status of liver functioning.

If you are not regular user of alcohol and your regular tests comes normal you can go for liver test after 48 hours after drinking a glass of wine.

If I could not understand your query properly please clarify.

Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.

Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
