Antivenom for snakebites is produced by immunization of large mammals with snake venom using atraditional and expensive method developed in the 1890’s. Due to the animal origin, the products arehighly immunogenic and come with a high risk of adverse side effects such as serum sickness andanaphylaxis, possibly leading to death.
