Overview
PharmEasy Labs in Jodhpur offers the SGOT Test, utilizing the latest technology for precise and reliable results. This test plays a vital role in diagnosing and monitoring liver health and function. Elevated SGOT levels can indicate liver damage, which could be due to various causes, including viral hepatitis, alcohol abuse, or medication-induced liver injury.
In addition to liver health, the SGOT Test is also significant in evaluating heart conditions. This test is often part of a comprehensive panel that may include other liver enzymes like Serum Glutamic-Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT), Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), and Bilirubin tests, to provide a broader view of liver and overall health.
Regular monitoring of liver enzymes is crucial, especially for individuals at risk or under medication that can affect liver function. Trust PharmEasy Labs for accurate and timely SGOT testing.
Test Necessity
If symptoms such as jaundice, abdominal pain, or unexplained fatigue are present, the SGOT Test can help diagnose liver issues. For patients with known liver conditions or those at risk, regular SGOT testing is crucial for monitoring liver health. Some medications can impact liver function. The SGOT Test is used to monitor liver health in patients on long-term medication.
Additionally, SGOT levels can rise after heart damage, so this test may be used in diagnosing or assessing the severity of heart conditions.
Test Preparation
Prior to the SGOT test, make sure to communicate all the medications you are on to your doctor, as this will help them when interpreting the results. In addition, ensure you stay well-hydrated by consuming ample water the night before the SGOT test. This will facilitate a smoother blood withdrawal process.
