SGPT / ALT Test (Alanine Transaminase) in Jodhpur - Price and details

At PharmEasy Labs, patients in Jodhpur can access a comprehensive range of diagnostic services, including the SGPT test, from the comfort of their homes. The SGPT test is an integral part of evaluating liver health and function. It is often ordered in conjunction with other tests, such as Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), and Bilirubin tests, to give a more complete picture of liver status. PharmEasy Labs utilizes the latest in diagnostic technology to ensure accurate and reliable test results, enabling healthcare providers to develop effective treatment plans.

Doctors prescribe an SGPT test when symptoms suggest liver dysfunction, such as jaundice, abdominal pain, or dark urine. It's also part of routine health checkups to monitor liver health, especially in patients with known liver conditions, those who consume alcohol heavily, or are on long-term medication that could affect the liver. Furthermore, the test is crucial for monitoring the liver's response to treatment for conditions like hepatitis or cirrhosis, and for evaluating potential damage from medications known to affect liver function.

Typically, no fasting is required for an SGPT test, but patients should follow their doctor’s instructions, which may include avoiding certain foods, medications, or alcohol that can influence liver enzyme levels. It's essential to inform the healthcare provider about all prescription and over-the-counter medications, supplements, and herbs taken, as some substances might affect the test results. Rest and a good night’s sleep before the test are generally recommended to ensure the body is in a natural state for the blood sample collection.
