My liver function test shows SGPT 83, SGOT 50, bilirubin 1, and triglycerides 161. I have been diagnosed with fatty liver. My doctor prescribed Silybon 145 mg, Ursocol, and Heptral 400 mg. Could you please explain my condition and whether these medicines are appropriate?
Your liver test results show mildly raised liver enzymes, with SGPT 83 and SGOT 50, which usually suggests inflammation or stress on the liver. Since your bilirubin level is normal at 1, it means there is no significant jaundice at present. Fatty liver happens when extra fat builds up inside the liver, commonly due to weight gain, unhealthy diet, diabetes, high cholesterol or triglycerides, lack of exercise, alcohol use, or metabolic problems. A triglyceride level of 161 is mildly elevated and can also contribute to fatty liver. The medicines your doctor prescribed are commonly used to support liver health. Silybon 145 mg contains silymarin, which may help protect liver cells. Ursocol is often used to improve bile flow and liver function in certain conditions, and Heptral 400 mg may help improve liver cell recovery and reduce liver inflammation. These medicines can be appropriate depending on your overall condition, but lifestyle changes are equally important for recovery. Try to maintain a healthy weight, avoid alcohol, reduce oily and fried foods, limit sugar and junk food, exercise regularly, and include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and protein-rich foods in your diet. Regular follow-up with your doctor and repeat liver tests after some time are important to monitor improvement. Most cases of fatty liver improve well with proper diet, exercise, and medical care if managed early.
