Abstract

Drug-associated hemolytic anemia is very rare. Hydrochlorothiazides are commonly used as diuretic or antihypertensive agents. In this report, we present an 80-year-old male patient who developed hemolytic anemia 20 days after using a combination of angiotensin receptor blocker and hydrochlorothiazide for the treatment of hypertension.
