Abstract: | A 10-year-old, thoroughbred gelding was administered sulphonamide drugs during surgical treatment of guttural pouch mycosis. The horse became anemic and a diagnosis of immune-mediated hemolytic anemia was made after other causes of anemia had been ruled out. The anemia resolved after the drugs were withdrawn. |
