摘要
To study the efficacy of anti-scorpion venom plus prazocin. Comparison of clinical features, outcome and duration of stay between children receiving anti-scorpion venom plus prazocin or prazocin alone for management of red scorpion envenomation. Requirement for dopamine and requirement and duration of dobutamine therapy were significantly less in patients received anti-venom plus prazocin than those had prazocin only. Faster recovery was seen in cases who received antiscorpion venom plus prazocin than prazocin only group. Anti-scorpion venom plus prazosin was safe and more effective than prazocin alone for scorpion envenomation.
