What is the normal range for liver enzyme tests?

Normal ALT (SGPT): 7 to 56 U/L; AST (SGOT): 10 to 40 U/L; ALP: 44 to 147 U/L; GGT: 8 to 61 U/L for men and 5 to 36 U/L for women; total bilirubin: 0.1 to 1.2 mg/dL. These ranges may vary slightly by laboratory and age group. Your gastroenterologist will explain what your specific values indicate and whether any follow-up investigation or treatment is needed.

What does a mildly elevated liver enzyme level mean?

A mild elevation , typically 1.5 to 3 times the upper limit of normal , does not necessarily indicate serious liver disease. Common causes include non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, moderate alcohol use, medication effects, vigorous exercise before the test, or temporary viral illness. A repeat test 4 to 6 weeks later helps determine whether the elevation is persistent and requires further investigation.

Do I need to fast before a liver function test?

Most liver enzyme tests , ALT, AST, ALP, GGT , do not require strict fasting. However, fasting for 8 hours is commonly recommended for the most consistent results, particularly if the test is part of a broader metabolic panel. Confirm fasting requirements with your doctor or the lab when booking.
