If there is a case where you are bitten just clean the bite with and anticeptic. A small amout of swelling may occour but shouldn't last over 12 hours.

Antivenom is not normally used for copperhead envenomation.....but, In the event that one is bitten by ANY venomous snake it is always importantant to seek immediate medical attention to make sure that there will be no serious complications.

Swelling can last over a week or more and several days is not uncommon.
