Aaron Goodman: Hydroxyurea for Sickle Cell Anemia
Aaron Goodman shared a post on X:
“Hydroxyurea for Sickle Cell Anemia!
Good stuff!
Mechanism
Increased HbF, decreased WBC, decreased RBC adherence to endothelium, increased RBC hydration = increased HbS polymerization and increased Nitric oxide.
Clinical results
Decreased RBC transfusion, decreased Hospitalization, decreased Pain episodes.
No increase in secondary malignancies!”
