outcomes including hemolytic anemia due to G6PD deficiency, neonatal brain or
liver damage, or neonatal death in some cases. Moreover, menadione supplements
have been banned by the FDA because of their high toxicity. Menadione has been
used experimentally as a chemotherapic agent for cancer, ca 1945, but has lost
