Hello,
I read your question and reports carefully and i can understand your concern for your mother very well.

I would like to tell you that in my opinion, your mother is suffering from acute viral hepatitis. In most of cases, it will resolve by itself within 10 days and does not require any kind of treatment.

Because most of the drugs are metabolized by liver, one need to avoid using drugs to give rest to liver. Also have high glucose diet and take sufficient rest. Udiliv is bile acid, which is useful in liver diseases.

Follow up with SGPT mainly to check the progress of recovery, levels of which will slowly fall down. So at this point of time, no need to worry and wait for few days, your mother will be fine within few days.

Hope this will help you and let me know if you have any further relevant queries.
