A member asked:
Can nyquil and dayquil, taken for three days before a blood test cause a rise in alt (167), and ast (114)?

Not unless you drank a quart or so. Review how much alcohol you normally drink and look up alcoholic liver disease.

The rise is more likely to be the result of a viral infection that prompted you to take these medications.
