Hi
Glad that the tests are showing improvement.
But we do not know why they were impaired to start with?
There are several reasons - Hepatitis virus, gall bladder, alcohol, fatty liver, medicines - the list is long.
As a minimum, have tests for viral infections, an USG (ultra sound scan).
Avoid medications unless prescribed by your doctor.
The chances are the levels will come down - even without medicines. Hepamerz is non-specific herbal preparation shown to be beneficial in some. The other one is bile acid, useful in some circumstances.
There is no specific diet - avoid overweight. Take balanced diet as usual
Good luck

Hi, welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das
First of all, though the level of SGOT is become normal but the sgpt is still high.
My opinion is dont stop the medicine continue it . Check the levels after 1 month.
You have to avoid rich diet.
