Liver Function Test (LFT): What It Checks and Why It Matters

What is a Liver Function Test?

A Liver Function Test, or LFT, is a panel of blood tests that measures enzymes, proteins, and other substances produced or processed by the liver — including ALT, AST, bilirubin, albumin, and alkaline phosphatase. Together, these values help assess how well your liver is functioning.

When is an LFT recommended?

• Unexplained fatigue, nausea, or loss of appetite
• Yellowing of skin or eyes (jaundice)
• Abdominal pain or swelling
• Regular alcohol consumption
• Monitoring the effects of certain medications
• Routine health checkups

Why early detection matters

Liver conditions often develop silently, with few noticeable symptoms until they've progressed. An LFT can help catch abnormalities early, when they're generally easier to manage.
