Is Alanine Aminotransferase at 80U/L Normal?
1. Alanine aminotransferase at 80U/L is generally abnormal and requires prompt medical attention to prevent continuous increase in the value from affecting health.
2. The normal range for alanine aminotransferase is between 0U/L and 40U/L, and 80U/L has significantly exceeded the upper limit of the normal range. It may be caused by non-disease factors such as long-term staying up late, excessive fatigue, and excessive consumption of fried food. However, it cannot be ruled out that it is caused by disease factors such as bile duct obstruction, viral hepatitis, and liver cirrhosis. These factors can easily damage hepatocytes, releasing alanine aminotransferase into the blood, leading to an increase in its value in the serum.
3. If caused by non-disease factors, improvements can be made through a light diet and more bed rest. If caused by liver injury, liver-protecting medications such as liver protection tablets and reduced glutathione tablets can be used for treatment under the guidance of a doctor. If the value does not return to the normal range after a period of medication, prompt medical attention is required.
