Adrenaline is used in following EXCEPT______________?

Correct answer: E. Both B & D

  • A. With xylocaine
  • B. Post extraction socket
  • C. Anaphylactin shock
  • D. Angina in dental chair
  • E. Both B & D

Explanation

Adrenaline is useful with local anaesthetics and in anaphylactic shock, but it should not be used routinely in an angina patient or placed in a post-extraction socket because of cardiovascular stimulation and local tissue effects. Thus both B and D are exceptions in the intended dental context.
