Recovering From Human Parovirus Infection. Elevated ALT, Gamma Gt Levels. Can Diclofenac Cause This? Had Taken Alcohol
I am recovering from human parvovirus & have just had my bloods rechecked. My alt is still raised & also my gamma gt, can diclofenac cause this? I stopped taking them 5 days prior to the blood test . I did have a glass of whisky the night before, not a regular occurrence. I will usually have a couple of glasses of wine at the weekend but no alcohol in the week?

Hello
Your raisd ALT and GGTP are due to alcohol and not due to DICLOFENAC.
Just be off the alcohol for at least 3 months.
Your levels shall become all right.
There is no medicine in particular which can reduce the levels of ALT and GGTP.
Take plenty of water and fresh fruits and green vegetables.
There is nothing to worry.
Thanks
