Irukandji syndrome is produced by a very small amount of venom and includes severe pains at various parts of the body (typically excruciating muscle cramps in the arms and legs, severe pain in the back and kidneys, and a burning sensation of the skin and face), headaches, nausea, restlessness, sweating, vomiting, high heart rate and blood pressure. As of March 3, 2006, no antivenom is known. The sting itself is only moderately irritating, the severe syndrome is delayed for 5–120 minutes (30 minutes on average).
When properly treated, a single sting is normally not fatal, but two people in Australia are believed to have died from Irukandji stings,[2] greatly increasing public awareness of Irukandji syndrome. It is unknown how many other deaths from Irukandji syndrome have been wrongly attributed to other causes.
