A member asked:
Please describe a good reading for ast/sgot and alt/sgpt on the liver function tests?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
They should be norma: The normal levels are under 50 units. But this is a very sentive test. It takes a minor liver damage and the enzymes can go up into value of 100s.

Just the facts: If they are up, repeat off alcohol and medications. If that doesn't work, the workup will be for hepatitis b and c, wilson's, hemochromatosis, immune hepatitis, and maybe a couple of others. If these are ruled out, often the cause is the metabolic syndrome and the key is to return to a fitness-focused lifestyle. Best wishes.

Blood test for liver: Alt (Sgpt) and Ast (Sgot) were very high, and Alkaline Phosphatase was a little high. Everything else normal. Should I worry?

My bloodtest returned, ast (sgot) = 307 alt (sgpt) = 767 these are 10-20 times the normal values. These values have been elevated for 20 days. Does this mean I have permanent liver damage?
