SGPT can be increased due to variety of reasons. One reason could be your Atorvastatin. Any increase more that twice the upper limit is significant, Otherwise you try to closely moniter your SGPT levels. If proved the rise is only due to your drugs, the we could consider stopping atorvastatin, But Atorvasatin is a wonderful drug, if used appropiately.
