Abstract

From 1965 to 1978, 300 cases of snakebites were recorded and from 1974 to 1978, 100 cases of scorpion stings, 5 of Scorpaena stings and 125 of Trachinidae stings. Antivenom therapy was the most effective treatment for severe viper bites, with antihistaminics and steroids for M. monspessulanus. Antihistaminics, steroids and anesthetics were most effective for scorpions and marine animals.
