For 8 hours prior to test it is preferable to abstain from eating or drinking, except water. Additionally, the doctor may ask you to restrain from some drugs which affect the levels, like ascorbic acid (Vit C), and some diuretics

The ALT blood test does not require fasting. However, other typical tests done at the same time require fasting. Check with your lab or health care provider for information specific to your situation.

No, a serum creatinine test does not require fasting. The test measures a waste product in the blood that comes from normal muscle activity, and fasting does not typically affect the results.
