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.

View allI'm dealing with IBS and was diagnosed with depression about 1.5 years ago. I've been taking fludac 20, but recently I've been having bowel movements 6-7 times a day, and they're fragmented. It's not like diarrhea but it's been going on for 5 days with some stomach cramps. Usually, taking metrogyl 400 clears it up in a day, but this time it's not helping. I started taking norflox tz yesterdaytwice dailyand I'm feeling a little better, but there's still this urge for bowel movement and some cramps. Any thoughts on what might be happening or what else I should do?
continue the same medication

I have 8mm gallstones and my doctor prescribed udilive 300 and zentac 300 for 3 months. Is there any way to get rid of gallstones without surgery? I'm really hoping to avoid an operation if possible.
Gallstones under 1 cm may sometimes dissolve with medications like ursodeoxycholic acid, but surgery remains the definitive cure to prevent future attacks.

I've been taking Dulcoflex for about a month now to help with constipation, but I'm noticing some weird side effects. I'm going to the bathroom a lot more often and I'm always hungry, even after eating a big meal. I've also noticed I'm losing weight and there's some itching around the anal area. I've done a bunch of tests but everything comes back normal. Could you suggest what might be going on or recommend some medication that could help? I'm really worried about these symptoms.
The symptoms you're experiencing, such as high urination, excessive hunger, weight loss, and anal itching, despite normal test results, may be related to the laxative Dulcoflex (bisacodyl); consider stopping or reducing the medication and switching to a fiber supplement like Psyllium Husk or methylcellulose to manage constipation
