I've recently had some blood work done and found that my ALT and AST levels are off, even though everything else seems to be within the normal range. I don't have any stomach pain or anything unusual like that, so I'm a bit confused about what might be going on. Last month, I took Augmentin 625mg, Emanzen D, and Pan 40mg for five days, and about a year ago, I was on some medication for hair treatment that lasted around four months, though I can't remember the name of it. Could you help me understand what might be causing these abnormal numbers?

Based on your test results showing elevated ALT and AST levels, along with your history of recent medications such as Augmentin 625mg, Emanzen D, and Pan 40mg, it is possible that drug-induced liver injury may be a contributing factor. Additionally, the previous medication for hair treatment taken one year ago could also have played a role. To address the elevated liver enzymes, it is important to discontinue any potentially offending medications. In this case, Augmentin 625mg, Emanzen D, and Pan 40mg should be stopped. I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring of your liver function.

I'm feeling some really sharp pain under my ribs, like being poked with a nail. It's happening between my 3rd and 2nd last rib, and I've been dealing with it for about 45 years. Sometimes it happens every 2-3 months, but other times it's more regular. I'm starting to worry if it might be something wrong with my liver, or maybe it's just gas-related? I also have constipation issues. What could be going on?

Thta could be due gastritis,take antacids for a week and consume bland diet and take adequate rest,visit Gastroenterologist for appropriate management

I've had jaundice before, but I'm doing well now. I'm thinking about using Liv 52 as a regular detox thing. How many Liv 52 tablets should I take a day? And is there a limit on how long I can use it without worrying?

For detoxification purposes, you can take 2 tablets of Liv 52 twice a day after meals. It is generally safe to use Liv 52 for a prolonged period of time as it is a natural hepatoprotective supplement. However, if you have any concerns or experience any unusual symptoms, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional.
