What causes high ALT SGPT and low Alkaline phosphatase?

High ALT SGPT and low Alkaline phosphatase can be caused by many reasons.

If your ALT SGPT is in between 21 U/L and 72 U/L and your Alkaline phosphatase is in between 30 U/L and 120 U/L then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for ALT SGPT and Alkaline phosphatase respectively. But if your levels are lesser or greater than the above values, then there may be some problem in your body.

Some examples of conditions that can increase or decrease ALT SGPT levels include:

• Alcohol abuse
• Blockage of the bile ducts.
• Kidney damage.
