Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a common enzyme defect with a wide range of clinical manifestations that can be severe. A variety of factors including many medications can induce hemolytic episodes. Screening for G6PD deficiency is required before use of some drugs especially primaquine or dapsone.
