Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I just had a liver test because my doctor wants to make me take limasil tablets. However, my results are SGPT 50 where the reference range is (4 - 36) and the SGOT is 57 where the reference range is (5 - 34). My Bilirubin Direct is 0.5 where the reference range is ( 0.0 - 0.30). What should I be worried about?
Your findings suggests raised SGOT,SGPT and direct bilirubin level.
Increased SGPT may indicate liver injury.It may be due to many reasons like hepatitis,alcohol intake,auto immune causes etc. It may be due to hepatitis in your case.
You may need few more investigations like routine hemogram,viral markers,ultrasound of abdomen. I suggest tablet ursodeoxycholic acid 300 mg twice daily for three months to my patients.It helps in regeneration of liver cells.
I suggest follow up test after one month. Avoid alcohol if you take it.
Get well soon. Take Care Dr.Indu Bhushan
