Hello! Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, commonly known as favismosis. It is the most common hereditary enzyme deficiency disease, showing X-linked incomplete dominant inheritance. Exposure to broad beans or drugs with oxidative properties can cause acute hemolytic anemia. Currently, there is no specific cure for the disease, and symptomatic treatment is mainly required after the onset of the disease.

This disease is caused by a genetic mutation that reduces G6PD activity in red blood cells and/or changes in enzyme properties, causing hemolysis. It is a hereditary defect that cannot be cured at present, and you need to avoid exposure to triggering factors for life.
