In Colombia, about 90% of snakebites are caused by Bothrops snakes, whose venoms cause in vivo, local and systemic disturbances, such as edema, myonecrosis, blood-clotting disorders and hemorrhage. Antivenom is the only effective treatment to manage these poisonings, but its limited action at local...
