Can High Uric Acid Foods Cause Changes In SGPT Levels?

i have a SGPT level of 262 which is very abnormal in my case. I rarely drink alcohol and I have continuously maintained a normal level of these tests for years until last week. I can recall eating high uric acid foods approximately 10 days prior my lab test. Did this have any effect on the lab results?

Hello

Raised SGPT is most likely not related to eating high uric acid foods.
Increased SGPT may indicate liver injury.It may be due to many reasons like hepatitis,alcohol intake,altered lipid profile,medicines,auto immune causes etc.

You may need few more investigations like routine hemogram,viral markers,ANA factors,ultrasound of abdomen.
I suggest tablet ursodeoxycholic acid 300 mg twice daily for three months to my patients.It helps in regeneration of liver cells.

You may need to take more medicines after complete investigations.

Get well soon.
Take Care
