Hello Increased ALT indicates liver injury. Increased ALT may be related to alcohol intake. Most probably reason for taking lipanthyl is hypertriglyceridemia. You need further investigations like viral markers, ultrasound of abdomen. In such conditions, I suggest tablet ursodeoxycholic acid 300 mg twice daily for three months to my patients. It helps in regeneration of liver cells. You should continue hyperlipidemia Chat Doctor. Try to avoid alcohol completely. You should also avoid red meat and high fat milk products. You should avoid fried and junk food. Increase your physical activity also. Take Care
