My SGPT level was 350+ couple of months ago. a retest after a week to that showed 230. another test a week later showed 280 again. during this period I restricted myself from oily or fried stuff. then I started Silliver a Silymarine tablet.. after a month a re tested to find it 145. the Silymarine wasn't used daily. cant figure out how to go for it now. I need a quick remedy to bring it to normal range. is there a 1 week miravle formula. . regards
You didn't mentioned your age. You need proper clinical examination and full investigations. Investigation includes routine hemogram,RBS,Lipid profile,LFT,RFT,GGT,Ultrasound of abdomen, Viral markers, CT Scan of abdomen can be done if needed. You need proper history taking like alcohol history etc. Treatment depend upon reports. Probably you need medicines other than silymarine. Get well soon.
