Effects of Prevacid on Liver and/or lab test results

My brother, age 28 has been on Prevacid for about 6 years, just received blood work test results.  His numbers were as follows:  
GGT-96<img src="/images/smilies/sad_smile.gif" alt="" />
AST-113<img src="/images/smilies/sad_smile.gif" alt="" />
ALT-262<img src="/images/smilies/sad_smile.gif" alt="" />
HDL-31
LDL-130
CHOLESTEROL-248
CHOLESTEROL HDLC RATIO-8.0
GLUCOSE-102

Regarding the GGT, AST, and  ALT readings;  can Prevacid effect these scores significantly or are these scores caused by poor diet, drinking, and obesity.

I know that he will go to the doctor but I thought you may be able to provide a little insight for a big sister's peace of mind, while waiting for the appointment.

Sincerely, 
A protective big sister
