Ayurveda has mentioned the bite of Sarpa, Keeta, Luta, Vrischika etc., the Jangama Visha (animate poisons), their characteristic symptoms and its management, in a very special branch called as Agadatantra. Even though Vrischika (scorpions) is a type of Keeta (insect) due to its severity of poisoning and disease manifestations Ayurveda acharyas have given special attention to Vrischika visha and are described in the classics as a special entity. Vrischika damsa is specific envenomation that needs medical attention.
