Does Eptoin increase GGT

I am taking Eptoin from 1988 untill now.The first three years 10 mg per day.From third year I am taking 20 mg per Day.
This year I happened to Check my Blood Test , showing GGT 150 IU/L.And as per  Doctor's advise I have gone through Liver Ultra sound test , showed 3 polys in the gall bladder(3.5 to 4mm).
I reay worried about these results.
Does Eptoin increase the GGT?
Please advise me the medication.

HI, well,eptoin do increse GGT level but the polyps in gall bladder are additional findings.Are you getting some symptoms of liver toxicity or it is an incidental finding.Relax and don't worry as majority of patients on eptoin do get elevated GGT levels.

bye and take care!
