Attached are my LFT reports. I see that my bilirubin level is much higher than the normal range. What should I do to reduce the bilirubin levels? Should I use any medication? Currently, I am on statin medication for high cholesterol.

High bilirubin levels can occur due to liver inflammation, fatty liver, or medication effects, including statins. It is important not to stop your statin without your doctors advice. To help lower bilirubin, avoid alcohol, drink 2 to 3 liters of water daily, and eat a liver-friendly diet with fruits and vegetables. Avoid oily and processed foods. You should share this report with your doctor for review. You can book a Liver Function Test (LFT) repeat and Ultrasound Whole Abdomen to check liver health and guide treatment.
Dr. Kamran Suggests...
Take a LFT (Liver Function) Test Test or Take a Lipid Profile Test Test

I recently received a test report showing a high level of SGPT. I understand this may indicate a liver problem. What should I do next?
Answered by Apollo Doctors
I am 4 months pregnant and was taking 100 mg iron tablets with no issues. After moving to a new city, my new doctor prescribed 500 mg iron tablets. Within 15 days, my LFT levels have increased dramatically, reaching levels similar to primary liver cirrhosis. My recent liver function test report: SGOT: 193 U/L SGPT: 257 U/L GGT: 65 U/L ALP: 338 U/L Direct Bilirubin: 0.60 mg/dL
