Primaquine, an antimalarial drug, is essential for preventing relapses of . However, it poses a risk of hemolytic anemia, particularly in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficient patients. This case report details a 27-year-old male with normal G6PD levels who developed hemolytic anemia following primaquine therapy for malaria. Despite a normal quantitative G6PD analysis, the patient experienced a significant drop in hemoglobin, necessitating early discontinuation of the drug. This case highlights the potential for hemolysis in G6PD-normal patients, underscoring the importance of close monitoring and the limitations of current G6PD screening methods.
伯氨喹是一种抗疟药物,对于预防[疾病名称]的复发至关重要。然而,它存在导致溶血性贫血的风险,尤其是在葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶(G6PD)缺乏的患者中。本病例报告详细描述了一名27岁男性,其G6PD水平正常,在接受伯氨喹治疗疟疾后发生了溶血性贫血。尽管定量G6PD分析结果正常,但患者的血红蛋白显著下降,因此必须提前停药。该病例突出了G6PD正常的患者发生溶血的可能性,强调了密切监测的重要性以及当前G6PD筛查方法的局限性。
