EthanolĮthanol - drinking alcohol - can actually be used as an antidote. DuoDote is not carried on many ambulances, but some special teams that specialize in treating poisons carry them. When its safety cap is taken off and the auto-injector is pushed against the thigh, it will automatically send the needle into the thigh and deliver the medicines. It comes in an auto-injector, which looks like a large pen. DuoDote is given by injection (through a needle into the thigh muscle). Both medicines are antidotes against some insecticides and nerve gases. There is a product called DuoDote that combines atropine with a medicine called pralidoxime chloride (also called 2-PAM). For example, it can help restart a heart that is not beating. Atropine is carried on many ambulances because it has other uses. However, because of the way it reacts with the body, atropine is used as an antidote against some insecticides and certain kinds of nerve gas. For example, atropine, which is found in deadly nightshade, is very poisonous. Sometimes, antidotes are poisons themselves. Then, when that antivenom is given to a person who has been poisoned by that venom, the person's immune system will already "know" to kill the venom. Then, those antibodies can be taken out of the animal's blood to make an antivenom. That animal's immune system will create antibodies which signal other cells in the immune system to destroy the venom. To create some antivenoms, a little bit of venom is injected into an animal, like a horse. AntivenomsĪntivenoms will fight the poisonous effects of bites from venomous animals (animals that make venom), like some snakes and spiders. "Milking" a snake so antivenom can be made.
