Work out antivenom dose instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Totals the reconstituted antivenom and diluent volume and works out the infusion rate, noting that antivenom dosing is by envenoming severity rather than weight.
Antivenom volume
Total volume = vials x volume per vial + diluent; rate = total volume / infusion hours
Educational estimate only. Not a substitute for professional clinical judgement, and must not be used to make treatment or dosing decisions.

Adrenaline and resuscitation equipment, because anaphylaxis to antivenom is common.
