[|Human|] Hi Doctor, I just had a check-up, and the only thing is not in normal range is ALT level, it is 122, the normal range is 0-50. Prior to my check-up, about 8-9 months, I had been taking some over the counter Chinese herbal medications for digestive disorder and supplements for strengthening liver and kidney functions. Besides, I also included ginger root into my diet quite excessively. I wonder if my ALT level is raised by Chinese herbal medications or ginger? Thanks for your help!
[|AI|]  Hello Chinese herbal medicines may increase ALT as its safety is not proved scientifically. High ALT may indicate liver injury. You may need clinical evaluation and investigations like routine hologram, viral markers, random blood sugar, lipid profile, ultrasound of abdomen. I suggest tablet ursodeoxycholic acid 300 mg tablet twice daily for three months. It helps in regeneration of liver cells. You should avoid herbal medicines and consult gastroenterologist for proper evaluation. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.
