| Response from Dr. McGovern
 It is very common to have elevated liver tests while taking INH. Your liver tests are only mildly abnormal and you are at the end of treatment. I suspect that your liver tests will return to normal the next month when you stop your INH. I don't believe any further testing is warranted since you have been already monitored very closely.
