Abstract

A case of drug-induced immune hemolytic anemia is described. A 2 year old boy exhibited sudden anemia and hemoglobinuria after administration of minocycline (MINO). The specific immunoglobulin G antibody against MINO was demonstrated in the patient's serum by western blotting. This is a rare example where anti-minocycline immune complex-mediated hemolysis was responsible for an intravascular hemolytic process.
