Hello

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.

SGOT is non specific and it increases in many conditions.
Your sister may need few more investigations like routine hemogram,viral markers,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.

She may need to take more medicines after complete investigations.

Get well soon.
Take Care
