Hello,

It's probably related to fatty liver rather than medicines. Liver damage due to fat accumulation leads to Liver cell injury and elevated SGPT. So, should get ultrasound of the liver to confirm it. And it's treatment is weight loss and healthy lifestyle.

You should have a healthy lifestyle like avoiding fatty, oily and high calorie diet. Have low salt diet and monitor blood pressure regularly. Regular exercises like brisk walking, jogging according your capacity at least 30 min a day and 5 days a week.

Lots of green leafy vegetables, fruits, fish once or twice a week, avoid meat.Avoid smoking and alcohol if any. There shouldn't abdominal fat deposition or obesity.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sagar Makode,
