Hello some probable reasons for rise in SGPT in your case .
It can be because of medication .
If you are on any statin for cholesterol and triglycerides,
Pain killers itself can raise SGPT, try avoiding the same , of there is any oral steroid in your medication for allergic asthama.
Lastly of you are obese , than too there may be such rise in SGPT because of fat deposition in the liver , though rare .
So just sent the complete list of all medications you are taking and we would suggest you accordingly and till than no painkillers .
