Patient's question:
If you already have hepatitis B (small round dot), and after a thorough examination it is found that your ALT (alanine aminotransferase) level is high, is this serious? What should you do?Doctor's answer:
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is an indicator of liver function, and its normal or abnormal levels reflect the extent of liver damage. With a small three-positive condition, if ALT is elevated, it indicates abnormal liver function, meaning the liver has been damaged during the complete clearance of the hepatitis B virus. However, the severity depends on the degree of ALT elevation. If it is only slightly elevated, not more than twice the normal level, it is not too serious. Taking liver-protecting medications or specific ALT-lowering drugs can help, such as biphenyl dimethyl (5 tablets at a time, three times a day), which is also relatively inexpensive. Additionally, it is important to recheck liver function and hepatitis B DNA. For severe liver disease patients,
