What is another word for haemolytic?
Pronunciation: [hˌiːməlˈɪtɪk] (IPA) 
Haemolytic is a medical term used to describe a condition where red blood cells are destroyed at a faster rate than can be produced. This can occur naturally or be caused by a variety of factors including autoimmune diseases, infections, or reactions to drugs. Synonyms for haemolytic include erythrolysis, hemolysis, and hematolysis. These terms describe the same process of red blood cell destruction. Haemolysis may cause symptoms such as jaundice, fatigue, and shortness of breath, and can be diagnosed through blood tests that measure the level of red blood cells, their shape, and the presence of antibodies. Treatment of haemolytic conditions typically involves identifying and addressing the underlying cause.
