my friend stunned his partner because he was bitten by a rattlesnake. He stated it worked. Is it possible.

It's been tried in some small studies, showed a little promise, and didn't pan out.
Note that at least one in three rattler bites are "dry bites," especially with mature snakes, who just want you to leave them alone and would just as soon not waste their venom (but don't count on it!). That's just one of many reasons not to trust anecdotal evidence of treatments.
I practice in a very small town and had a patient with a rattler bite just a couple of months ago. This is one of those towns where everybody knows everybody else's business, so the social implications of my electing not to give her CroFab were quite heavy. She did quite well, and was back completely to normal in only a few days after a minimal envenomation.

before everything i could desire to assert how sorry i'm to pay attention approximately your father. i do no longer think of it particularly is a mamba bite through fact they stay in jungles yet I particularly have a reliable suspicion that it particularly is a African violin spider whos venom is rather reliable. under you will see the wear and tear one those spiders can do.

No, it will not work. Snake bite is a chemical solution, so electricity will do nothing to it. He needs to go to the ER immediately. If the venom was enough, which it usually is, it will kill your friend.
