Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

GGT value of 77 is not at all significant and doesn’t indicates any disease conditions. In liver diseases the values will be above 400. As of now no treatment is required and you can do a repeat test after two weeks for reassurance. Keep in mind that the enzyme status are slightly high in patients who consumes alcohol on a daily basis.

Hope I have answered your query. Wishing you good health.

Thanks
