I have been taking Paroxetine, Aripiprazole 5 mg, and Zolpidem for the last 15 days. I am not feeling cured and also experiencing nausea. Is this normal? I have liver disease. Should I get an LFT test done or is this a side effect of the medicines? My LFT was normal 10 days ago.

Nausea may be from meds or liver stress. These drugs are metabolized in liver to LFT monitoring is essential. Consult psychiatrist before stopping or changing doses. Avoid alcohol, spicy food. Repeat LFT and consult liver specialist if abnormal.

Sir, my liver function test shows SGPT 45, SGOT 53, total bilirubin 1.1, alkaline phosphatase normal, INR 0.95, A/G ratio normal, but my GGT is high. For context, I am an alcoholic. Please advise what this indicates and what steps I should take next.

I had my blood test done for liver function check and I am uploading the test report. I found one of the test results is outside the normal range mentioned in the report. Is it a problem?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My blood report shows normocytic normochromic cells with macrocytes and ovalocytes, and my liver enzymes are elevated (SGOT is 55.9 U/L, SGPT is 61.9 U/L). I do not consume alcohol or cold drinks. I want to know if it is safe to undergo surgery for dry ear perforation. Also, could these results indicate any underlying disease? Please advise.
