There are a wide variety of poisonous fish, many have spines loaded with venom and others, such as the jellyfish, have tentacles that can inflict serious wounds.
Aspivenin® is very effective in treating poisonous fish stings. It allows for the quick relief of the first painful effects of the venom which soon flows into the limbs of the stung person. All this can be done whilst proper medical attention is sought. Many lifeguards have Aspivenin® as part of their first aid kits when they patrol beaches. ORDER NOW! |
The weever fish, for example, has a row of spines along its back. It is light in colour and marked with brown spots and grows up to 20 cms in length. Buried under the sand, it waits for its prey with only the venomous stings of the spine and the top of the head visible. They can be found mainly in the coastal waters of any temperate sea. The sting is very painful, which is understandable when you realise that weever venom is as powerful as the toxin in rattlesnake venom. It is a venom that destroys red blood cells and paralyzes nerves. The instant and very intense burning pain can bring unconsciousness and hence the potential for the victim to drown. It lasts from 30 minutes to an hour although the symptoms of numbness to the limb can persevere for many hours more.
Jellyfish, such as the Portuguese Man O'War, consist of numerous small polyps under a gas-filled float. They drift along with the tide trailing their long tentacles in the water. The tentacles are armed with stinging cells powerful enough to cause severe injury to people.

"Whilst on holiday in Turkey, my wife, who is allergic to mosquito and wasp bites, had two terrible wasp bites, but thankfully the Turkish hotel owner took the poison out with an Aspivenin – it was so simple and effective."
Mr. J. L. H., Merseyside, UK
"I first saw Aspivenin used to treat an insect bite on a fellow traveller whilst on holiday in Turkey and, having purchased one, my wife used it on our return home. In both cases the bites came to nothing, as there was minimal inflammation and no irritation. I could not help but be impressed by the apparent efficacy of the device, and will take it with me when we travel to Africa later this year."
Dr. M. T., Cambridge, UK
"As my business is building bridges for logging companies, many of my overseas trips involve periods in deep tropical rain forests and it has certainly been a comfort having my trusty Aspivenin with me. Whilst I am pleased to say that the opportunity to trial the product on a snake bite has not arisen, it has certainly been effective on insect stings, even several hours after the event, and gives considerable relief. It may interest you to know that I demonstrated the product to some of the foresters in Guyana; given that they are constantly in danger from many venomous beasts, they showed very great interest."
Mr. D. R., Stockport, UK
"I am writing to say how impressed I am with your Aspivenin device. Whoever invented it deserves a medal! I have for many years been extremely allergic to mosquito and cat flea bites. Foreign holidays have been a nightmare and trips to cat-owning friends’ houses likewise. Each bite develops into a persistent red swelling which itches and hurts quite uncontrollably for at least a week. I have tried everything and often end up with the affected part swathed in ice packs, which afford about an hour’s relief at the most – and them I am awake again. Last week I was suffering from two nasty cat flea bites from a neighbour’s house. I applied the vacuum pump to both bites that afternoon and again that evening. The itching subsided almost immediately. I went to bed…..and suddenly it was morning – a miracle!"
