Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The GGT level is bit high. It is elevated in conditions like alcohol liver disease and hepatitis. Some drugs can also cause elevated GGT levels. You can redo the test after one week to asses the progress and if necessary stop the drug you are taking and reassess.

Hope I have answered your query.
