Brief Answer: Nothing to worry Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for writing in. SGOT and SGPT are liver enzymes. Mild alteration in liver function can cause a rise in their levels. A level of 57 is a mild rise in levels which if accompanied by normal other liver function tests is no cause for concern. You can take course of liver tonics for 6 weeks to normalise it. Ornithine compounds or tricholine citrate / sorbitol combination is the best. I hope this answers your query. Regards
