[|Human|] Sir, I am 43 years old and drinks near about 200 ml brandy daily before dinner for the last 2 years. Now I had done LFT and the SGOT shows 81U/L and SGPT shows 92U/L and the rest are normal? Whether the alcaholism is the reason for the rise in SGOT and SGPT?. I had consumed 10 hours before blood checking. Please advice the possible reason for the high SGOT and SGPT. Thanking you, Kumar
[|AI|]  Hello! Thank you for the query. Regular alcohol intake even in small dosages can lead to liver destruction and liver cirrhosis. Your liver test are only slightly elevated, so it can be due to alcohol use, medicines, spicy foods. As it takes from 30 days to 3 months for the liver cell to get regenerated I suggest you to avoid alcohol and have liver tests repeated in a month or so. Abdominal ultrasound should be also performed. Hope this will help. Regards.
