GGT refers to glutamyl transpeptidase, which is an important indicator of liver function. Normal values are 10-50 U/L for men and 7-32 U/L for women, with 68 units/liter being high. The causes of high glutamyl transpeptidase are caused by certain drugs, liver and gallbladder diseases, pancreatic diseases and so on.
1. Certain drugs: the use of phenytoin sodium and phenobarbital may lead to physiologically high glutamyl transpeptidase.
2. Liver and gallbladder diseases: When liver and gallbladder diseases lead to hyperglutaminyl transpeptidase synthesis or bile excretion disorders, the serum glutamyl transpeptidase level will be elevated.
3. Pancreatic diseases: acute or chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic tumors and other diseases such as fatty liver, myocardial infarction, prostate tumors, etc. can also lead to high glutamyl transpeptidase.
Excluding physiological factors caused by high glutamyl transpeptidase, it is recommended to consult a doctor in a timely manner, under the guidance of the doctor to determine the cause of the disease and targeted treatment, do not take medication, so as not to delay the condition.
