Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Patients with hemophilia do not typically require antibiotic premedication for injections of local anesthesia because the concern with hemophilia is related to bleeding, not infection. Antibiotic premedication is generally used to prevent infection in patients at risk of bacterial endocarditis, not for bleeding disorders like hemophilia.
