What Can I Do To Lower My SGOT/SGPT Levels?
Hello. I am 33 years old, 5'3" 144 lbs. I took LFT two weeks ago and my SGOT level was 98 and SGPT level was at 58, both high. I do have high tolerance for alcohol and really am trying to lower my alcohol intake. What else can I do to lower my SGOT/SGPT levels and how long would it take for them to get in the normal range.

hi.
noted history of high levels of liver enzymes and chronic alcoholism. decreasing will help but avoidance of alcohol intake is best. also, do not take medications or supplements which are not FDA recommended or if you have no indication for it. it is best if you consult with a doctor, for clinical evaluation and management.
hope this helps.
good day!!
