Your total bilirubin (1.4) is slightly above normal may be mild jaundice. Direct (0.4) and indirect (1.0) values are not very high. This could be due to mild liver stress, dehydration, or recent illness. Stay hydrated, avoid oily food, and rest well. Repeat LFT if symptoms continue

Sir, my recent LFT reports show bilirubin at 1.86, SGPT at 42, and SGOT at 45. I have done LFT tests three times over different weeks. While SGPT and SGOT levels have decreased (SGPT: 65 to 42, SGOT: 55 to 45), my bilirubin has increased from 1.2 to 1.86. I have been taking Udiliv 300 and Tocofol as prescribed by a gastroenterologist. What should I do next?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Sir, I recently underwent a package of various tests, and my liver function test results show values outside the reference range. I do not observe any symptoms in my body, and I do not consume alcohol. Could you please guide me on what this might indicate and if I need any further evaluation?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Based on my report, could someone please suggest the best medicine to cure the imbalance in my liver? I am not an alcoholic and I always take a healthy diet. It could be the medicine I have been taking for the past month for my back pain that caused it? Kindly suggest.
