Your AST = 24.9 and ALT = 14.4 are both within the normal range.
The AST/ALT ratio of 1.7 may look higher, but since both enzyme values themselves are normal, this does not indicate liver disease. The ratio alone has no clinical significance when values are normal.
Next Steps
• Repeat Liver Function Test only during routine health check (6–12 months)
• If symptoms like jaundice, abdominal pain, or fatigue occur, consult a doctor.

Your liver enzymes are within the normal range.
• AST: 24.9 U/L – normal
• ALT: 14.4 U/L – normal
The AST/ALT Ratio of 1.7 may appear slightly higher, but this ratio is mainly interpreted when AST or ALT are elevated. Since both enzyme values are normal, the ratio alone does not indicate liver disease. In most cases, this finding is clinically insignificant if the rest of the **Liver Function Test parameters are normal.
Next Steps
No specific treatment or medication is required based on these values.
You can simply:
• Repeat the Liver Function Test during your next routine health checkup (usually in 6–12 months).
• If there are symptoms like persistent fatigue, abdominal pain, jaundice, or alcohol use, then further evaluation such as Ultrasound Abdomen may be considered.
Health Tips
• Maintain a balanced diet with limited fried and processed foods.
• Avoid excessive alcohol intake.
• Maintain healthy body weight and regular exercise.
• Stay well hydrated and avoid unnecessary medications or supplements that can stress the liver.
Overall, these liver enzyme values look reassuring and do not suggest any liver problem at present. If you would like, you can book an online consultation and share your full report and medical history so I can review everything in detail and guide you further.

Your AST (24.9 U/L) and ALT (14.4 U/L) levels are within the normal range. The AST/ALT ratio of 1.7 can sometimes appear slightly higher, but this ratio is mainly considered significant when the enzyme levels themselves are elevated. Since both AST and ALT are normal and other LFT parameters are also normal, this finding is usually not clinically concerning.
Next Steps
No specific treatment is required if there are no symptoms.
Health Tips
Routine healthy diet and periodic monitoring are sufficient.
