Hi, my lab results show below. Is it normal? I am worried for abnormal results (creatinine and ALT). I am 32, taking amlodipine5 mg and rosuvastatin for last 3 years.

Thank you.

Albumin-urine <5
Creatinine 2.4 (3.5 to 24.5)
Unable to calculate ACR due to lower Albumin....

Creatinine blood 72 (67-117)
eGFR 117
ALP 84 (40-129)
ALT 90 (should be <50)

Referring to your kidney tests, these are normal. A very low albumin in the urine is actually desirable.

Regarding your slightly high ALT, this might be due to your use of a statin medication. But there are many other causes of elevated ALT including viral infections.
