Effects of Schizolobium parahyba extract on experimental Bothrops venom-induced acute kidney injury.

<h4>Background</h4>Venom-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication of Bothrops snakebite with relevant morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of Schizolobium parahyba (SP) extract, a natural medicine with presumed anti-Bothrops venom e...
