Hi,

Thanks for writing in.

A mild increase of indirect bilirubin is nothing to worry. It is often seen with what is known as Gilbert's syndrome which is a mild birth disorder without any serious or long term consequences. with this disease there is often fluctuation of bilirubin which is often normal.

Please avoid any medications which can potentially damage the liver without consulting a physician or a gastroenterologist first. Also please let me know the report of the complete liver function test (Including SGPT, SGOT and ALP levels) . Please get it done if you have not got it done already.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help

Regards
Dr. Om Lakhani
