Hi welcome to healthcareMagic
the report shows both the Liver enzymes are elevated, Normal SGPT is 15 to 40 range and SGOT is 30 to 60 IU.. High levels of the liver enzymes show liver function is affected.. the cause must be found and treated.. common causes are due to increased alcohol consumption for long duration, Prolong drug intake,etc.. the patient must be clinically evaluated and treated...

hi elena,
welcome
your father's level is too high
what about bilurubin and alkaline phosphate?
these two are in too high condition
ANY WAY your father's liver cells are damaged.consult as early as possible a good hepatologist and get investigated for the infection
better take some ayurvedic medicines also as supportive
