  • Abstract:
  • Snakebite, scorpion stings and other venomous creatures envenoming remains a serious global health issue, especially in rural areas with limited access to medical care. Anti-venom serum therapy is the primary treatment to neutralize venom and prevent fatal complications, but delays in reaching healthcare facilities often worsen outcomes. Medicinal plants and herbal formulations have shown anti-venom and supportive effects, reducing tissue damage, inflammation, and systemic toxicity. Certain plant extracts inhibit venom enzymes, suggesting their potential as adjunct therapies. Combining traditional knowledge with modern treatments could improve snakebite management, offering safer, affordable, and locally accessible options, particularly in resource-limited regions.
