Hepatocellular damage releases ALT and AST. Elevations in ALT generally are more specific for liver injury, whereas elevations in AST can also be caused by extrahepatic disorders, such as thyroid
An AST/ALT ratio of less than 1 (where the ALT is higher than the AST) is a general indication of fatty liver disease. An AST/ALT ratio equal to 1 (where the ALT is equal to the AST) may indicate acute viral hepatitis or hepatotoxicity.
Glucocorticosteroids such as prednisone are an important cause of increased ALT and AP levels in dogs. The AST is not a useful enzyme to assess

Before taking Lexapro I did blood test and everything was normal including liver enzymes (AST, ALT) which were 30. After 3 weeks of Lexapro, AST and ALT are 50 (increased). Is this normal, does Lexapro affect AST,ALT or this is just coincidence?
