Need more info: What is the GGT level? There are many medications that can raise GGT. How much do you weight? Fatty liver is an other cause. If GGT is only minimally elevated and stable and there is good reason to take the medications that my be raising it, that may be okay. See this site for more info. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003458.htm
