Snakes

Post by JamesMichael » February 26, 2024, 9:01 am

I have a question, has anyone been bitten by a snake? If so do all hospitals carry antivenom or do some hospitals specialize in snake bites? Time would be of the essence so going to the right place is important so it would be good to Know.

This is a good resource to identify dangerous snakes. has a little bit about anti venom

I would think the best hospital to go to would be the government hospital at Nong Prajak ( if in Udon Thani). Smaller hospitals are less likely to carry anti-venom.

I recall this was the subject of a thread several years back and the upshot was yes, local hospitals have antivenins.
