Summary: "On Snake-Poison: Its Action and Its Antidote" by A. Mueller is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The work explores the nature of snake venom and presents a treatment method utilizing strychnine as a potent antidote, emphasizing the need for thorough understanding and careful administration in emergencies. It addresses the widespread implications of snakebite treatment for medical practitioners and laypersons in snake-prone regions.
