what is 'antivenom'?
Definition for antivenom
Antivenom (or antivenin or antivenene ) is a biological product used in the treatment of venomous bites or stings. The name, antivenin, comes from the French word venin meaning venom , and historically the word antivenin was predominant around the world, however, this usage is archaic in English.

Antivenom (or antivenin or antivenene ) is a biological product used in the treatment of venomous bites or stings. The name, antivenin, comes from the French word venin meaning venom , and historically the word antivenin was predominant around the world, however, this usage is archaic in English. For the English language the World Health Organization decided in 1981 that the preferred terminology in the English language would be "venom" and "antivenom" rather than "venin/antivenin" or "venen/antivenene".
