CroFab Is Clinically Proven to Arrest Local Injury, Resolve Systemic Effects, and Reduce Hematologic Effects of Envenomation1

Clinically Proven to Achieve Initial and Clinically Relevant Control of North American Pit Viper Envenomation1

Graph showing 98% of patients achieved initial control of envenomation and 95% experienced a clinical response with CroFab


Based on 2 open-label trials with 42 patients with mild or moderate envenomation. Exclusion criteria for both trials included envenomation by copperhead snakes. In study 1, patients were given up to 2 doses of 4 vials each to gain initial control. In study 2, patients were given up to 2 doses of 6 vials each to gain initial control.1

Clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvements in limb function at 7, 10, and 14 days following envenomation compared with placebo (P<0.05) for all 3 time points).3,4

PSFS, Patient-Specific Functional Scale.
Based on a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with 74 patients with mild or moderate envenomation.
Patients with severe envenomation were excluded. Patients were given up to 2 doses of 6 vials each to gain initial control.3
