Brief Answer:
No medication required, healthy life style rquired
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.
The levels of SGOT and SGPT are 54 and 93 IU/L.
These levels are slightly raised from the normal level and do not signify any disease.
Majority of chemotherapeutic agents are metabolized by the liver, thus it is expected for the liver enzymes to change.
However, there is nothing to worry.
A healthy life style, balanced food, plenty of fluids and fiber are all that is required.
If you add regular exercise in your routine, it would be great.
If you have more queries, I will be glad to answer.

Dear Doctor
Thank you for your quick reply. But her last chemo was done on 19th Feb and her operation was done on 7th April. Is this chemo still effecting her body and makes SGPT High?
Can you please suggest what food she should take.

Brief Answer:
Depends on half life of drugs
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome again,
The time for which a drug stays in the body depends on its half life.
Different drugs have different half lives.
You can get a repeat SGOT and SGPT levels after 15 days of this report to assess the levels of the enzymes.
A drop in their levels is expected.
The food should include a balanced diet rich in proteins. Protein rich foods include egg white, fish, white meat, pulses, beans, milk, soyabean etc.
Fresh fruits and vegetables should also be included.
Water intake should be ample- atleast 2 litres a day.
Regular light exercise will also help.
Remain stress free.
Thanks and take care
