Background & Method: The aim of this study is to study clinical profile of snake bite. The bites were classified as venomous and non-venomous based on clinical features. In venomous bites an attempt was made to determine whether they were bitten by elapidae or viperidae based on the description or examination (when brought) of the offending snake. Also whenever the patient had or developed unequivocal neuroparalysis or haemotoxic manifestation, they were assigned to elapidae or viperidae respectively
