Hepatic Profile

Comprehensive Blood Test to Assess Liver Function and Health

The Hepatic Profile is a detailed blood test designed to evaluate liver function, enzyme activity, and metabolic health. It offers essential insights into how well the liver is performing its vital roles in detoxification, protein production, and digestion, and helps identify early signs of liver dysfunction.

Experience symptoms suggestive of liver dysfunction

Are managing a chronic liver condition

Fasting Requirements

What’s Measured?

The Hepatic Profile typically includes:

Liver enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP, GGT): Indicate liver cell damage or bile duct issues

Bilirubin (Total and Direct): Elevated levels can signal liver or bile duct problems

Albumin and Total Protein: Assess the liver’s ability to produce essential proteins

Prothrombin Time (optional): May be included to evaluate blood clotting function related to liver health
