Is ALT a better monitoring choice than AST on ecnoglutide?

Asked 12 Dec 2025Modified 8 months agoViewed 12k times

Setup, so nobody has to ask: ALT · AST · ecnoglutide.

Both of these get recommended confidently by different people, which suggests neither is obviously right.

My constraints are cost, measurement resolution and how much handling I am prepared to do — in roughly that order.

What is the actual trade-off, and does it matter at the scale I am working at?
