Normal values for alanine aminotransferase are 0-40 U/L and for alanine aminotransferase 0-40 U/L. Both aminotransferase enzymes are indicative of inflammation, as well as damage to the liver. Elevated aminotransferases, if elevated, generally indicate liver damage and predisposition to other liver diseases such as hepatitis B and hepatitis. Mildly elevated aminotransferases do not usually cause clinical symptoms, but if they are elevated, they can cause nausea, vomiting, and bloating. In addition to this, it can also lead to liver damage requiring prompt symptomatic treatment. If ascites occurs, albumin injections are required to avoid cirrhosis as early as possible. During the course of treatment, monitoring the level of transaminases can also help to assess the condition and can play a role in preventing liver disease.
