I'm a bit confused because the pharmacy gave me Sucrafil solution instead of the Sucrafil O gel solution that my doctor prescribed. Are they the same thing? Can I use the Sucrafil solution, or do I need to get the exact one my doctor mentioned? Just to give you a bit more context, here's what my prescription looks like: Rablet 20 mg before breakfast, Ganaton OD after breakfast, Rantac 150 after dinner, and the Sucrafil O gel solution before breakfast and dinner. Would love your advice on what to do next.

I'm a bit concerned about my recent liver test results. It says my liver is slightly enlarged at 14.8 cm, and there's a grade 3 diffuse fatty change. It mentions mild hepatomegaly with fatty liver, but the tests for Hepatitis A and C came back negative. My liver enzyme levels are SGOT 46.5, SGPT 91.5, and Gamma GT 97.1. I'm not a drinker, so that's not a factor. Could you help me understand what all this means for my health and what steps I should take next?
