Here is the medical term for venom:

Venom: A poison, particularly one secreted by an animal. For examples, bee venom, snake venom, scorpion venom, and spider venom. Snake venom is also called venin.



IT'S ALL THE SAME! If you call it venom and someone else calls it poison they are just as correct as you!



I don't believe that the method of introduction to the blood stream determines wether it's poison or venom, wether you get bit or inject it yourself, it is venom.... and a poison.
