Hello and thank you for your question. There are treatments for hepatitis but you would need to see a liver specialist to know which one is best for you. There are several types of viral hepatitis and you need to know which one you have to determine which medication is right for you. They may even need to do a liver biopsy in order to determine the stage of your liver disease. Elevations of SGOT ad SGPT are signs of liver irritation and are common in patients with hepatitis. Please avoid any alcohol or acetaminophen as these can further damage the liver. See a liver specialist for a determination of which treatment is right for you.
