The following criteria for administration after Crotalidae bite allows for clinician judgment and shared decision making with the patient due to the extreme cost of Crofab[1]

  1. Progression of swelling
  2. Abnormal results on lab tests (plt < 100,000 or fibrinogen < 100)
  3. Systemic manifestations (unstable vitals or AMS)
