What Is The Highest Dangerous Level Of SGPT , SGOT And GGT?

Hi Doc, I am 56 years old, weigh 78 kgs and am 5 10 tall. I am presently on Crestor 10mg and Blood pressure pills. I drink quite heavily abut 5-6 times a week. Had taken my hepatitis A jab and am immune to hepatitis B. Recently I went for my blood tests and my SGPT , SGOT and GGT levels were 68, 60 and 83 respectively. Can you tell me is this a dangerous level and if not what is the dangerous level. Thanks

Hello

Findings suggest raised SGPT,GGT and SGOT level.
SGOT is non specific and it increases in many conditions.
Increased SGPT and GGT may indicate liver injury.It may be due to many reasons like hepatitis,alcohol intake,altered lipid profile,medicines,auto immune causes etc.
It may be related to alcohol intake in your case.You should avoid it completely.

You may need few more investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,ultrasound of abdomen.

I suggest tablet ursodeoxycholic acid 300 mg twice daily for three months to my patients.It helps in regeneration of liver cells.

You should avoid saturated fat and go for brisk walk regularly.
You should continue other medicines.

Get well soon.
Take Care
