Liver Function Test at Home in Dubai
Also known as: LFT, LIVER PROFILE, HEPATIC PANEL

About the Test
A Liver Function Test checks the enzymes and proteins that reveal how your liver is doing. Enzymes like SGOT, SGPT, ALP and GGT can rise when liver cells are irritated or bile flow is blocked, while bilirubin, albumin and total protein show how well the liver is processing waste and making proteins. It is used for routine wellness checks, before or during certain medications, and when symptoms such as jaundice, fatigue or abdominal discomfort suggest the liver deserves attention.
What is it? A blood panel measuring liver enzymes, bilirubin and proteins to assess liver health, commonly called LFT, liver profile or hepatic panel.

Liver Function Test test: purpose, preparation and results
Why take the Liver Function Test test?
- Routine screening for people who drink alcohol, are overweight, or have fatty liver risk factors.
- To investigate symptoms like yellowing of the eyes or skin, dark urine, nausea or right-sided abdominal pain.
- To monitor the liver while on long-term medications or managing a known liver condition.
How to prepare for the Liver Function Test test
No fasting is required for a standalone liver function test. Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours beforehand, as recent drinking can temporarily raise enzymes like GGT, and mention any medications or herbal supplements you take.
Understanding your Liver Function Test results
Raised SGOT, SGPT, ALP or GGT can indicate liver cell irritation or a bile-flow problem, while low albumin or high bilirubin may reflect how the liver is functioning overall. Patterns matter more than any single value, so have a doctor interpret the full picture.

Fasting is not required for the liver panel itself. However, avoiding alcohol for 24 hours is advisable because recent drinking can push GGT and other enzymes up and cloud the picture.
Elevated SGPT (ALT) and SGOT (AST) suggest liver cells are under stress, which can come from fatty liver, alcohol, infections or some medicines. A doctor needs to interpret the degree and pattern before deciding what it means for you.
It can raise a flag when enzymes are abnormal, which prompts further evaluation for fatty liver, hepatitis or other causes. It does not diagnose a specific condition alone and is usually paired with history, imaging or additional tests.
