Patient's question:
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) 81 U/L, Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) 41 U/L elevated; Is this hepatitis?Doctor's answer:
High ALT levels may be related to problems in the liver itself, such as other viral hepatitis or excessive and frequent alcohol consumption and poor rest. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the cause and treat it accordingly. It is essential to avoid overexertion, follow a ban on alcohol, and avoid medications harmful to the liver. Drink plenty of water and eat more fruits and vegetables. If you need to take medication, you can consider options like Compound Vitamin B, Vitamin C, and Inosine Tablets for liver protection, but avoid excessive medication, as too many drugs can cause liver damage. Hepatitis patients can use dietary therapy as a complementary treatment while receiving symptomatic treatment. It is crucial to avoid extreme hunger or overeating and never indulge in binge eating in daily life.
