Brief Answer:
Medicines for allergy and pain

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Your current medicines that you are taking for allergy and pain killers will pass via the liver metabolism, so the liver has increased work to do. This raises the ALT enzyme which is liver enzyme.

Once you stop these medicines the liver enzymes shall return back to normal in 2 weeks to 4 weeks. I suggest you to take alternative remedies for allergy and pain. Your doctor can guide you if you give more details about it.

Hope this answers.
