Antivenin works by binding to toxins in the venom and neutralizing their effects. This helps to prevent further damage to tissues and organs in the victim's body. Antivenin is made by injecting animals with small amounts of venom, causing them to produce antibodies that can then be collected and used to make the antivenin.

An antivenom is an alternative term for an antivenin - an antitoxin for treating bites from venomous animals such as snakes and spiders.

If the snake is non-venomous, then no special treatment is needed beyond what you would do for any puncture wound. Snakes do not have dirty teeth and there is very little danger of infection from a snake bite. Most of the germs a snake would have do not affect humans at all. It is possible to get Salmonella from handling snakes, but this is from contact with waste and not their fangs.

If the snake is venomous then an antivenin needs to be administered. Each different species of venomous snake has a different venom and for every different venom there is a special antivenin. It is very, very important to get a good look at the snake so that it can be described to doctors or herpetologists so that the correct antivenin can be administered.

No - since you can never be absolutely certain which species of venomous snakes are in your area. The safest way is to treat a victim with antivenin - after they've been bitten. Antivenin is specific to the species of snake, and has to be administered by a doctor, due to the complexity of ascertaining the correct dosage for the individual patient. Too much antivenin will act with the venom already in the patient's system (increasing the chances of death) - too little will not be of benefit to the patient at all.

Yes - anti-venin is type specific. You need to know what species of snake inflicted the bite - to administer the correct remedy.

Antivenom is typically made by injecting a small amount of venom into an animal, such as a horse or sheep, and then collecting the antibodies produced by the animal against the venom. These antibodies are purified and concentrated to create antivenom, which can then be used to treat venomous snake or insect bites.

The only proper treatment is to get to the emergency room for antivenin treatment. In the meantime:

DO stay calm.


DO call 911 and seek medical attention immediately.


DO remove any jewelry or tight clothing from the bitten area/limb right

away (you'll want it off before the wound and surrounding tissue starts

swelling).


Do NOT cut the bite site, or create any kind of tourniquet around the wound.


Do NOT put ice on the bite.


Do NOT try to suck the venom from the wound.


Do NOT treat the site with rubbing alcohol or medication.


Do NOT wait for swelling, pain or other common symptoms to manifest

themselves before going to the emergency room.

If you are a sane person, you do not attempt to handle a rattlesnake unless you are ready to spend more than $100,000 on treatment for a possible snakebite. Antivenin, alone, runs from $4000 to $8000 per vial and it may take several vials to cure a serious bite.

That would depend on the species of snake and if the victim is able to obtain prompt and proper medical treatment. In the United States the death rate from snakebite is less than one percent if the person receives proper antivenin treatment on a timely basis.

That depends on several factors - where on the body was the bite, how much venom was injected, the age and general health of the person bitten, etc. Without prompt medical treatment with antivenin, death could come in a few hours or may be prolonged for several days. With proper treatment, deaths are rare, however.

1 answer


Yes - if it's a venomous species that caused the bite. You'd need the correct anti-venin treatment.

Opium gum can be accessed from poppies. Alcohol is produced in nature by the fermentation of sugars by yeast, and there are some CNS depressants like belladonna that are available in plants. There are other examples.

In addition to ingested chemicals, most animal venoms work by depressing the CNS. They would not, however, be considered drugs unless processed and used for antivenin.

Minimize the child's movement and call for medical help (paramedics).

In an area where snake bite is not an uncommon thing, most emergency medical services deal with such often enough that they will have the treatment options on board.

Oh, and kill or capture the snake if possible. It will help dramatically if antivenin is necessary.

2 answers


1. Place a tourniquet between the bite and the heart. Loosen it every 15 minutes.

2. Get victim to doctor immediately for an antivenin shot.

3. If you are in an isolated area where no doctor is available, give the shot to yourself.

Keep the victim as still as possible.

Moving around spreads the poison through the body faster Have the victim lie down quietly.

Do NOT give stimulants (Coffee, whiskey, any alcoholic drink.) They also spread the poison faster.

Get medical help as quickly as you can.

If there is no phone to call for help, carry the victim to the nearest phone or doctor.

It depends on what you're making it for, but basically "if you have to ask, the answer isn't going to help you much." It's not something you can do at home, unless you're a biochemist (and probably even then you wouldn't have all the equipment you need just sitting around).

The antivenom isn't in the snake. The antivenom is produced by mixing a small amount of the snakes poison with other chemicals and ingredients that counteract the affects the poison has on the body. The venom is extracted from a snake by holding its head in a way that forces the snake to open its mouth in a biting gesture, and then the open fangs are used to puncture a plastic top stretched over a jar/vial, so the venom runs from the fangs into the container.

Horses are injected with small doses of snake venom - not enough to cause the animal serious harm - but enough to 'trick' the horses body into producing anti-bodies to fight the poison.

These anti-bodies are collected from the horses blood-stream and grown in a laboratory - forming the main component of anit-venin.
