Introduction to Asvs Injection

Asvs Injection is a snake venom antiserum that is used to treat snake bites. It is a combination of antibodies that are produced in horses and are specifically designed to neutralize the venom of certain snakes. It is composed of polyvalent, enzyme-refined, equine antivenom immunoglobulin fragments. It is used to treat snake bites that are caused by venomous snakes, such as cobras, kraits, and mambas. It is also used to treat snake bites caused by non-venomous snakes, such as pythons and boas, if there is a risk of infection.

Do not consume this medicine if you are allergic to Asvs Injection. Before taking the medicine, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or think you may be pregnant or are breastfeeding. Notify your doctor if you have a history of any disease. Report to your doctor if you have any liver, kidney, or heart-related disease. This injection is not recommended for use by people who are allergic to any of the ingredients in the antiserum. It should also not be used by people who have a history of blood clots or kidney problems.

Therapeutic Effects of Asvs Injection

Asvs Injection functions through the hyper-immunized horse antibodies into the victim’s bloodstream. These antibodies recognize and neutralize venom toxins from snakes like cobras, common kraits, Russell’s vipers, and saw-scaled vipers, preventing further harm and reducing the toxic effects of the snakebite.
