<s>[INST] sir My friend met with an accident on October 25. He had lot of injuries including a head injury and underwent a neuro surgery next day of the accident. He was under full mechanical ventilation for almost 15 days and partial ventillation for 7 more days. Now he is shifted to hospital room and now his SGOT & SGPT shows a very high range. 183 and 280 ... Is this cause anything worse ?Doctors said this may be because of the after effects of medicines he had . How long it will take to cure? [/INST] hi there, obviously your friend has had a very tough period in the past few months and I think elevated SGOT and SGPT is least of his worries now.As suggested by the attending doctor the high values can be attributed to medications that he has been receiving. Once his health stabilizes and he is weaned off the medications especially if he has been receiving anti epileptics and high dose of antibiotics then the levels will come back to normal levels provided there is no residual liver disorder. wish your friend a speedy recovery. </s>
