A member asked:

How long does lipase and amylase take to normalize? tests a few weeks back were high (lipase over 500 but amylase not tested) few weeks later now are still slightly high with lipase 152 and amylase 140?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It depends on the underlying pathological process. Elevation due to mild inflammation would subside in a few days. Acute pancreatitis levels may take a couple of weeks, unless a pseudocyst develops. Why were these tests done. It is better to talk to the doctor who ordered the tests as s/he knows more about your health,
