The venom is not as potent as that of Australia's other dangerous snakes, but it can cause severe effects if delivered in large enough amounts. Its main effect is on striated (skeletal) muscle, which can cause paralysis through muscle damage. It also commonly affects blood clotting (coagulopathy).1

Deaths from its bites have been recorded, with the most recent in 1969. Extensive pain and swelling often occur at the bite site, and necrosis (death of tissue) occurs rarely.1
