1. SGOT and SGPT levels of your kid are not alarming - do not worry. 2. The raise could be either due to fever or due to paracetamol which was given to control temperature. 3. it could also be due to the Epival which is being administered. 4. But whatever is the cause - as the levels are not alarmingly high - you need not worry about them. 5. They will come down automatically. Regards - Dr. Sumanth
