Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels can be rapidly reduced through dietary adjustments or intravenous administration of hepatoprotective and enzyme-lowering medications. If ALT levels are significantly elevated, daily dietary modifications—such as consuming light, easily digestible foods like millet porridge or vegetables—and complete abstinence from alcohol can effectively lower ALT levels. Additionally, intravenous medications such as polyene phosphatidylcholine or reduced glutathione may be used to protect the liver and reduce enzyme levels.
