What Could Be The Reason For Having Elevated GGT In Liver Function Test?

I just had Liver Function Test done, it is found that GGT is slightly elevated (66 against normal 55). I have been taking sildenafil/viagra in recent past recreationally , 2 or 3 times in a week in last 2-3 months. Rest of Liver enzymes are normal. Please suggest.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
You have slight increase in the liver enzymes, it may not be due to the sidenafil, and more over you are taking it occassionally only.
Any how it is better to go through the other tests of the liver, to prevent any further progress.
Avoid taking fat, oily foods, junk foods, alcohol etc.
Take fresh juice of palatable vegetables daily.
Wishing for a good health Thank you.
