My ALT (SGPT) was elevated to 42 while my AST SGOT was normal.  Could the Advil I have to take several times per day for an injured knee cause that?  And does that mean I should stop taking Advil then?   If it isnt Advil, what else could cause one number to be normal and the other not?  I am on a green juice fast and vegan diet.
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Why are you worried about ALT 42? This is considered as normal finding in most laboratories. This means nothing and if you repeat the test today it might show -5+ parameter. So this isn't abnormal finding. Advil can affect liver, but side effects are very rare. So just don't worry, you have normal liver enzymes.Wish you good health.
