View allI'm a smoker and I also drink occasionally. I've been doing this for quite some time, and I'm concerned about keeping my liver healthy. I've heard about Liv 52 and was wondering if taking it once daily could help maintain my liver health. Is that something you would recommend, or is there something else I should consider?
Liv 52 can be beneficial for maintaining a healthy liver, especially if you are a smoker and occasional drinker. The recommended dosage for Liv 52 is usually 1-2 tablets twice daily. It contains natural ingredients that can help protect the liver and improve its function. However, it is important to also quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption to further support your liver health.

I'm worried because my SGPT levels are high and I've been taking medication like Cirrosam 400, Obeticholic acid, Ursocol 300, and Evion for the past two months. The only one that seems to help is the Obeticholic acid. Interestingly, my lipid profile is normal and I've tested negative for Hepatitis B and C. My blood sugar levels are also within the normal range. On top of this, I've been dealing with hyperuricemia. Can you tell me how long it might take for my SGPT levels to get back to normal?

I'm feeling a bit anxious about my upcoming hair transplant surgery because of my recent blood test results. They found my Bilirubin level was 2, and then my SGOT and SGPT were 102.70 and 136.2, which led to the doctor refusing to proceed with the surgery. They mentioned I need a certificate from an MD in medicine, but I'm confused about if these levels are really that worrying. Can you give me some guidance on whether these results are considered moderate? I'm not sure if it's safe to go ahead with the surgery or not. Looking for some help on what I should do next.
SGOT and SGPT are double normal level, it willl be difficult to give physician consent for surgery.
