Those are two separate things.
The verb form of poison encompasses the latter. From Merriam-Webster:




1 a : to injure or kill with poison;
b : to treat, taint, or impregnate with or as if with poison




Curiously, M-W defines envenom as:




1 : to make poisonous




The freedictionary.com defines envenom as:





  1. to fill or impregnate with venom; make poisonous

    The fairly archaic word venenate might fit the bill:




    venenation noun



    ven·​e·​na·​tion | ˌven-ə-ˈnā-shən



    Medical Definition of venenation



    : the condition or process of being poisoned especially by a venom of animal origin



    Other Words from venenation



    venenate ˈven-​ə-​ˌnāt verb venenated; venenating

    • The ngram chart for "antivenom" only recently passed up "antivenin." I was always taught antivenin, so venenate made perfect sense to me, but it's definitely on its way out!
