    GlossaryLiver Enzymes

    proteins in the liver that facilitate biochemical reactions

    Liver enzymes, also known as hepatic enzymes, are proteins produced by the liver that catalyze various biochemical reactions essential for liver function and overall metabolism. Common liver enzymes include alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), which are often measured in blood tests to assess liver health and diagnose liver conditions such as hepatitis, fatty liver disease, and cirrhosis. Elevated levels of these enzymes can indicate liver damage or inflammation.

      Oral minoxidil is more effective than topical minoxidil for hair regrowth but may cause side effects like heart issues and increased body hair. Combining it with finasteride is common for better results, though side effects vary.
