Anavip is a life-saving medication administered via IV to combat the venom of certain snakes, like rattlesnakes and copperheads. While it's a miracle for those bitten, the side effects can be severe and even life-threatening. I've heard stories of people experiencing everything from allergic reactions to unbearable joint pain. If you or someone you know has been treated with Anavip, I'd love to hear your experiences. How did you handle the side effects? Did the doctors manage them well? Let's share our stories and support each other.
