Rhopalurus junceus, or blue scorpion venom, originated from Cuba, and is often marketed as having anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic properties.
Claims for these products, known as Escozine and Escozul, are largely based on anecdotal information, testimonials, and preclinical experiments on laboratory animals. However, the manufacturers’ research cannot be corroborated and has not been published in any peer-reviewed journal (15) (16). In 2009, the Cuban government formally rejected the use of Escozul due to insufficient clinical data (17). Only recently has there been a functional characterization of R. junceus in the literature, but without any clinical evidence presented for R. junceus-derived products (18). A homeopathic version, Vidatox, has since been developed and has also not been evaluated in peer-reviewed journals.
