$79.00
Experiencing pale skin, fatigue, shortness of breath, or jaundice? A Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) Test is an important blood test that measures G6PD enzyme levels, which are essential for protecting your red blood cells from damage.
Low G6PD enzyme levels can lead to hemolytic anemia, a condition where red blood cells break down too quickly. This can be triggered by certain medications, foods, or infections.
The G6PD Test plays a key role in diagnosing G6PD deficiency and guiding your healthcare provider in choosing the safest treatments and lifestyle adjustments. By understanding your enzyme levels, you can prevent triggers, protect your red blood cell health, and maintain your overall well-being.
