Common Risk Factor
- Common risk factors in the development of G6PD include:
- Foods such as fava beans in G6PD mutation carriers
- Medications such as:
- Aspirin
- Antimalarials: quinine, primaquine, pamaquine, and chloroquine
- Sulfonamides: mafenide, sulfanilamide, sulfamethoxazole
- Thiazolesulfone
- Methylene blue
- Analgesics: phenazopyridine and acetanilide
- Rasburicase
- Some non-sulfa antibiotics : furazolidone, isoniazid, dapsone, nalidixic acid, nitrofurantoin). Henna has been known to cause hemolytic crisis in G6PD-deficient infants. Rasburicase is also contraindicated in G6PD deficiency. High dose intravenous vitamin C has also been known to cause haemolysis in G6PD deficiency carriers, thus G6PD deficiency testing is routine before infusion of doses of 25g or more.
- Bacterial, viral and rickettsial infection
- Some chemicals: Hanna in tattos and hair dyes.[1]
Less Common Risk Factors
- Less common risk factors in the development of G6PD include:
