Description
A G6PD test is a blood draw to check levels of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD). G6PD is a protein that supports red blood cell function. If you have low G6PD, you may develop hemolytic anemia, which occurs when your body destroys red blood cells faster than it makes them. You may need a G6PD test if you have symptoms of hemolytic anemia.
