The Polyvalency of Crotalidic Antivenins [PDF]
The Journal of Immunology, 1939 Summary With American pit viper venoms the fatal dose for 20 gram mice injected intraperitoneally approximates that for 350 gram pigeons injected intravenously. No difference in time of onset and character of paralysis from very toxic and less toxic venoms, such as was observed in pigeons, was seen in mice.

Western Journal of Medicine, 2001 Many physicians believe it is dangerous to treat snakebites using polyvalent crotalid antivenin because of the high risk of anaphylaxis. The study by Offerman and colleagues, however, suggests that fears about the antivenin are unfounded. Their findings add to the literature suggesting that anaphylactic shock is extremely rare.

Emergency Medicine Australasia, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 630-635, August 2023., 2023 Red back spider antivenom (RBSAV) use fell dramatically over time from 2013. There was no difference in rate of complete pain resolution from latrodectism when comparing patients treated with RBSAV by intravenous or intramuscular route and or standard analgesic agents. Complete resolution of pain from latrodectism is difficult to achieve. More research
