Abstract
Immediate action and effective communication, along with timely antivenin administration and well-equipped intensive care facilities, were integral in saving the life of this victim of a yellow scorpion envenomation. All level 3 facilities in Southwest Asia must be familiar with ordering, administering, and documenting this antivenin because it is difficult to obtain and infrequently available.
