Effects of Cobra Venom. Cobras have several methods for delivering their deadly venom to their prey. Some cobras can spit their venom into a victim's eyes, causing extreme pain and blindness. However, the most common and well known method of venom delivery is injection into a victim's body through their bite.A Cobra striking!

The only way to counteract the effects of cobra venom (or most other poisonous snake venoms) is to inject the appropriate antivenom shortly after the bite occurs.
Snake venoms vary dramatically from species to species, but they have one thing in common: Every one of them is an extremely complex composition, made from sometimes thousands of different proteins and enzymes, each with a specific function. Venoms can be roughly divided into three main groups: cytotoxins, neurotoxins and hemotoxins. But the lines dividing these groups are fluid, and most species employ a combination of the three. The type of poison and how fast it works is adapted to the snake's lifestyle and that of its prey. Sea snakes, for instance, have extremely fast-acting venom.
