Abstract
Androctonus australis venom at various dilutions was administered to matched groups of mice and the effects on survival time and number determined for various classes of therapeutic agents. Meperidine and other narcotics were consistently deleterious to envenomed animals as were alcohol and calcium acetylsalicylate carbamide. Neither corticosteroids nor muscle relaxants were beneficial. With tran-quilizing agents, meprobamate tended to increase survival time, while reserpine markedly curtailed survival.
