Case Report: Hemolysis in a G6PD-deficient patient, a dose-dependent effect of metformin

2020-10-14

Abstract excerpt

Glucose-6-phosphate deficiency is an X-linked genetic disorder, which predisposes erythrocytes to oxidative stress, resulting in hemolysis. It is the most common enzymatic deficiency, and typically affects African, Asian, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern lineages. It can be induced by some medications, chemicals, and foods. Metformin is an uncommon drug to cause hemolysis in G6PD-deficient patients. We report a c...
