Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Since the SGPT (serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase) value is still high in you. I consider your liver to be under stress. Though the value has dropped after a period of 6 months, I do consider there is a need for optimum care to avoid worsening of the condition.

Do continue HEPEXA 300 as advised by your treating doctor. Also do reduce consumption of fat and spicy food. Both can affect and worsen the liver condition. Also increase consumption of vegetables, fiber and protein XXXXXXX foods to have easy digestion and healthy digestive system.

Hope I answered your query.

Please do let me know if there are any other concerns.

Regards,
