Currently, there is no specific antivenom for cone snail stings. Treatment primarily focuses on supportive care, including pain management and respiratory support, as the venom can cause paralysis and respiratory failure. In severe cases, medical professionals may use muscle relaxants or other interventions to manage symptoms. Prompt medical attention is crucial for anyone stung by a cone snail.
