However , carnitine supplementation at dosages of ≤ 1000 mg/day ( p = 0.035 ) or equal to 2000 mg/day ( p = 0.013 ) result ed in significant reduction in ALT level , while doses more than 2000 mg/day did not change ALT  significantly .
Carnitine exerts its reducing effect on serum ALT and AST levels only when these aminotransferases are raised or when the duration of supplementation lasts at least 3 months .
Results of the current meta- analysis showed that carnitine supplementation can decrease serum AST and ALT levels significantly , especially when supplementation lasts 3 months or more in patients with elevated serum aminotransferase levels
The Cochrane Collaboration’s tool for assessing risk of bias in randomised trials
Flaws in the design , conduct , analysis , and reporting of r and omised trials can cause the effect of an intervention to be underestimated or overestimated . The Cochrane Collaboration ’s tool for assessing risk of bias aims to make the process clearer and more
