A member asked:

Please tell me, could a patient of high sgpt take hepatitis b vaccine?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Why is SGPT high?: How high is the enzyme level. While elevated SGPT by itself is not a contraindication to hep b vaccination, you should consult your doctor for investigation. If you drink alcohol, stop entirely and re test in three months.
