Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase deficiency is associated with many diseases, some of which include Hemolytic Anemia and Favism. Hemolytic Anemia results in erythrocytes being destroyed before their typical life span is over. Hemolytic anemia can lead to many problems, including cardiovascular arrhythmia, cardiomegaly (enlarged heart), and fatigue. Hemolytic anemia can present with different severity, but can be treated with drugs. | Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase deficiency is associated with many diseases, some of which include Hemolytic Anemia and Favism.
