==Overview==
'''Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency''' is an [[Sex-linked|X-linked recessive]] [[hereditary disease]] featuring abnormally low levels of the [[G6PD]] enzyme, which plays an important role in [[red blood cell]] function. Individuals with the disease may exhibit non-immune [[hemolytic anemia]] in response to a number of causes. It is closely linked to '''[[favism]]''', a disorder characterized by a hemolytic reaction to consumption of [[Vicia faba|broad bean]]s, with a name derived from the [[Italian language|Italian]] name of the broad bean (''fava''). Sometimes the name, [[favism]], is alternatively used to refer to the enzyme
deficiency as a whole.
==Treatment==
* In the acute phase of hemolysis, [[blood transfusion]]s might be necessary. Blood transfusion is an important symptomatic measure, as the transfused red cells are generally not G6PD deficient.
* [[Dialysis]] in [[acute renal failure]]
* Some patients benefit from removal of the [[spleen]] ([[splenectomy]]), as this is an important site of [[red blood cell]] destruction. * [[Folic acid]] should be used in any disorder featuring a high [[red blood cell]] turnover.
* Although [[vitamin E]] and [[selenium]] have antioxidant properties, their use does not decrease the severity of [[G6PD deficiency]].

The mainstay of treatment for G6PD deficiency is avoidance of the foods such as fava beans and drugs that cause hemolysis. Pharmacologic medical therapy is recommended among patients with chronic hemolysis. Blood transfusion can be considered in the acute phase of hemolysis.
