How will phlebotomy affect me if i'm on anticoagulants?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More bruising: IF you are anticoagulants you may have more bruising after a blood draw. it may take a bit longer for it to stop bleeding , a few more seconds. However that is basically it .There may not be any difference in your experience with phlebotomy.
