A member asked:
My son's blood test report shows high values for liver function test. what is the problem he had viral fever and took antibiotics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Liver function tests: Would need a lot more information such as what tests are elevated and the level of elevation. Some viral infections other than viral hepatitis can elevate the liver tests and some antibiotics also can do this. Generally the tests will return to normal over a period of time, but if they remain elevated further evaluation should be undertaken.
