your bilirubin level is slight high but not much that you take treatment for that. but tell me in detail for which condition you are taking alcohol because after long time it will damage your liver. so consult doctor and ask for that and if possible go for liver function test once, check your ast and alt levels, if it is ok then no problems, bur if they are high then it need concern.
