Effect of low dose ASV with supportive care in poisonous snake bites in Marathwada region, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India

Background Due to a large number of patients and severe scarcity of ASV with patches of unavailability and unaffordable high cost, low doses of ASV had to be compulsorily used for treatment of poisonous snakebites. The main objective is to study the effectiveness of low dose ASV (total 50 ml) of ASV were given and practically all the victims who came on time, survived with low doses of ASV. This is very important in developing countries like India where there is high incidence of poisonous snake bites and scarcity of ASV.
