What does an ALT Liver enzyme score of 58 mean?

An ALT (alanine aminotransferase) liver enzyme score of 58 U/L is considered elevated, as normal levels typically range from about 7 to 56 U/L. Elevated ALT can indicate liver inflammation or damage, which may be caused by conditions such as fatty liver disease, hepatitis, alcohol use, or certain medications. It's important to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and to determine the underlying cause of the elevation. They may recommend additional tests or lifestyle modifications based on the individual’s overall health and medical history.
