Il est souhaitable au début d'un traitement au méthyldopa de procéder à une numération globulaire (...) à des fins de référence ou pour déterminer s'il y a anémie. Il faut procéder à ces examens à intervalles réguliers pendant la durée du traitement afin de dépister la présence d'anémie hémolytique. Il peut même être avantageux d'effectuer une épreuve directe de Coombs avant le traitement, puis de 6 à 12 mois plus tard. 1, record 2, French, - %C3%A9preuve%20directe%20de%20Coombs
