I take multaq for afib. i got a recent blood test and my alt level is a little high could that be the cause?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: Yes, Multaq can inflame the liver and cause elevated alt - follow your doctor's instructions. Depending on your total health history and the degree of elevation and other blood tests, it may be continued and the test repeated at a later date, or it may be stopped.

I recently got a blood test done at an ER visit for acid reflux pain. I was high for AST and ALT levels. My ALT was 219 unit/L and AST 303 unit/L. I've never drank alcohol and am 5'2 and ~110 pounds. Should I bring this up with a gastroenterologist?
