Regards  SKR Doctor: Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.SGOT and SGPT are  sensitive indicators of liver damage or injury from different types of diseases or conditions, and before any treatment the exact cause should be found. So the next step is to look for certain liver damage and most common cause is fatty liver disease. It should be confirmed by ultrasound. Other causes are viral hepatitis,cirrhosis, medications, alcohol intake or autoimmune diseases. To verify exact cause, US, bilirubin levels and tumor markers should be additionaly done.In every case, till you do these tests you should follow next:1. Avoid alcohol, smoking and hepatotoxic medications2. Avoid fatty, fried and high sugar diet3. Regulate your body mass4. Take Silimarin suppplementThese measures should protect your liver from further damage.If reversible cause if found then liver condition may be healed completely.Other causes should be treated regarding the exact pathology.Hope this answers your question.
