What does high Phosphate and Alkaline phosphatase mean in blood test?

High Phosphate and Alkaline phosphatase can be caused by numerous problems.

High levels of Phosphate and Alkaline phosphatase in the blood indicate a variety of health problems. If your blood Phosphate level is between 2.4 mg/dL to 4.5 mg/dL and the Alkaline phosphatase level is between 30 mg/dL to 120 U/L, then your body does not have any underlying health problems. But if Phosphate and Alkaline phosphatase levels exceed these levels, you should see a doctor immediately.
