Question 1

No such thing: There is no medicine for liver without a diagnosis of the cause of the liver sickness.  An elevated GGT is a symptom not a diagnosis.

Question 2

if my bloodwork came back with ggt levels elevated to 201, what can this mean?

Liver injury: Ggt is a sensitive indicator of liver injury. If you take alcohol, avoid it entirely for 3-4 weeks and re do the test. What were your other liver function tests like?

Possibly meds: Commonly GGTP is elevated due to medication use and occasionally alcohol.  If the remainder of your liver function tests are normal and you are feeling fine, likely this is something your physician can simply follow.

May just be you: That's high for the lab, I trust? About one person in 1000 always runs a way-high GGT. It's genetic. These folks get accused of being drunks. You're not. Sorry there was a misunderstanding. If everything else is okay, forget it.

High LDH is seen in liver disease as well as many other conditions.
