A 60-year-old woman living in a remote cattle station 300 km from the nearest hospital is bitten on the lower leg by a brown snake. She arrives at the small remote clinic within 30 minutes. She is anxious but haemodynamically stable, with no neurotoxic signs. Two fang marks are seen with minimal swelling. What is the most appropriate immediate management at the clinic?
