Patient's question:
On February 24th, I was hospitalized due to right lower lobe pneumonia and received a 7-day course of ceftriaxone. Upon discharge, I discovered liver function damage with Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) at 61 and Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) at 107. The doctor prescribed Ganoderma Lucidum Compound Tablets. Today, during a follow-up test, I found ALT at 63 and AST at 94. The doctor advised me to continue taking the medication and wait for a few more days before another follow-up test.Previous Treatment and Effects:
Ganoderma Lucidum Compound Tablets have been taken so far.
What kind of help is expected:
Is it highly disruptive to infants? How should it be treated?
Doctor's answer:
It is necessary to remind patients that many believe elevated ALT levels indicate hepatitis, but in fact, there are many reasons that can cause elevated ALT levels, such as the flu. To determine whether elevated ALT levels are due to hepatitis, additional tests are required, along with a comprehensive assessment that includes medical history, symptoms, and physical signs.
