I'm really worried because my SGPT level is 137. I need to get it down in the next 6 days. I've never smoked or drank alcohol, and I've never had jaundice before. What could be causing this, and what can I do to lower it quickly?

To lower your SGPT level within 6 days, you can start by taking Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) with a healthcare provider's guidance. Additionally, you can take Silymarin (Milk Thistle). It is also important to follow a low-fat diet, avoid processed foods, and drink plenty of water to help improve your liver function.

I've been having some issues with stomach and stool cleaning for about a week now. I went to the hospital and the doctor recommended a syrup called Gudlax Plus. Do you think this syrup is the right choice for me, and when would be the best time to take it?

Gudlax Plus syrup, containing a combination of liquid paraffin, methylpolysiloxane, and magnesium hydroxide, is commonly used to treat constipation and promote bowel regularity; take 1-2 tablespoons of Gudlax Plus syrup at bedtime or as directed by your doctor, with a full glass of water, to help soften and clear stool, and ensure adequate hydration to facilitate its effectiveness.
