Avoid the drugs cotraindicated in G6PD deficiency

deficiency is not curable but only certain medicines are restricted otherwise pt will live normal life .always have chit showing that baby has this deficiency.

Dear Parent,
G6PD deficiency is not curable as this is a genetic condition, person has to live with it and they can have normal life with taking certain precautions like they have to avoid some food(face beans) and medications, these triggers and at times infections can cause red blood cells destruction in G6PD deficient.
I hope you have received the list of drugs which should be avoided by these people from the doctor who diagnosed. if not please let me know so I can provide you with the resources.
