equine antivenoms

Equine antivenoms are treatments created from the blood of horses that have been immunized against snake venom. When a horse is injected with small amounts of venom, its immune system produces antibodies to fight it. These antibodies can then be collected from the horse’s blood and purified to create antivenom. When a person is bitten by a venomous snake, the antivenom can be administered to neutralize the venom, preventing its harmful effects. This is a common and effective treatment for snake bites, especially in areas where venomous snakes are prevalent.
