Its venom is considered one of the most toxic of any scorpion. Stings can cause a fast heart rate, sweating, fast breathing, blue-tinged skin, high blood pressure and, in some cases, a slow heart rate. Severe cases can lead to heart problems, cardiac arrest and fluid in the lungs (pulmonary edema). In laboratory measurements, the median lethal dose is 4.8 mg per kg.1
