I would inquire about this to be sure - it won't hurt to avoid those drugs just in case there is something going on with the liver. To me those are not normal results. Normal is less than 10 pre and under 20 post.
Cali's numbers were higher and she was diagnosed with a very mild MVD,no treatment needed. However, my vet treats her like a liver compromised dog. She checks any meds she puts her on to see if they are safe for her liver. When we had her teeth done a few months ago she used a special protocol due to her mild MVD. So I would ask the vet about that.
