Measure
Arm 1 Liquid Hydroxyurea
In Arm 1 of this study, n=18 infants ages 9 months to 2 years will be administered an extemporaneous oral liquid formulation of HU on a single occasion followed by PK sampling. The dose administered will be \~20 mg/kg/day or the infant's usual daily dose. Hydroxyurea: Drug: Hydroxyurea oral liquid dose administered will be 20mg/kg/day or infants's usual daily dose.
Arm 2 Hydroxyurea Oral Capsule
In Arm 2, n=30 children who range in age from 2 to 18 years will be administered oral capsule HU, both a sprinkle formulation and capsules (Droxia® 200 mg), on two separate occasions separated by at least 1 but no more than 30 days in a randomized, crossover fashion. The doses of HU on each occasion will be rounded to the nearest 200 mg and will not exceed 35 mg/kg or 2000 mg Hydroxyurea Oral Capsule: Drug: Hydroxyurea both a sprinkle formulation and capsules (Droxia 200mg) administered on 2 separate occasions.

Summary statistics including mean and SD will be reported for "sprinkles" and capsules and will be compared using two-sample t-test or Wilcoxon rank sum test depending on the normality of the data at a significance level of 0.05 per study design above. Logarithmic transformation will be applied if data do not follow normal.
