Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your level of ALT is over the normal range but it is not to high.It means that there is a slight injury on liver cells.
Alcohol consumption and cocaine are known toxic agent for liver cells.Mist likely the causes of high ALT is cocaine use.
You should stop taking it.
Liver has a great ability to regenerate his cells if the toxic factors are eliminated.
If you don't drink alcohol, don't use cocaine, eat healthy and exercise regularly ,most likely the levels of liver enzymes would be normal after 2-3 months.
Hope it helps.
Let me know if you have any other question.
Kind regards,
