Because it has to circulate your blood stream fully to wipe it out.

In order to work, the antivenom must contact the venom. Antivenom is usually administered via IV infusion and diffuses into the tissues slowly, whereas venom will diffuse into the tissues rapidly. It may take many hours for the antivenom to diffuse into the tissues and neutralize the venom there, depending on the nature of the antivenom product used. It should be able to neutralize the venom that may be circulating in the vascular compartment and prevent systemic manifestations of envenomation.

If cider is a clear liquid and lager is a clear liquid why is it when you mix them both to make snakebite it becomes cloudy?

When cider and lager are mixed to make a snakebite, the proteins in the cider react with the carbonation in the lager, causing a cloudy appearance. This reaction creates a process called flocculation, where the proteins and carbonation combine to form small particles that scatter light, leading to the cloudy appearance of the drink.
