Find why: Elevated transaminases can be due to anything from being in poor aerobic shape to having gotten really drunk last night to being allergic to a medicine to having something very deadly-but-treatable such as chronic hepatitis b or c, wilson's, hemochromatosis, or autoimmune hepatitis. Your physician may simply have you repeat the liver tests, or proceed to a more complete workup.

Slightly elevated: If these levels are persistenly elevated, you need to be tested for liver disease. Do you drink, if you do, stop. Donot take tyelnol, do you know if you have hep c? What is your weight? If overweight, lose wt. What medications do you take? You need to address these issues with your doctor as all these may be relevant and more may be revealed during history and physical.
