Hi Thanks for posting the query


The increase in GGTP is shows inflammation of liver. In your case it could be due to alcohol only. Consult doctor and get USG abdomen to see any other liver changes.

Complete abstinence from alcohol is suggested to avoid further liver damage.


Any issue do follow up.
