Phentermine: Phentermine has not been shown to cause abnormal liver enzymes. Your repeat levels are only borderline and I would repeat them after abstaining from alcohol for a couple of weeks and not testing them if you have any evidence of infection going on. If ast and alt continue to rise, have a hepatitis panel done and /or consult a gastroenterologist or hepatologist for evaluation.
