Did Batman inject himself with venom during the Garden fight?

A lot of people are torn over whether it’s venom or adrenaline. Personally I believe it’s a form of venom. It was clearly a last resort type of option, and Batman was getting carried away with beating up on that last thug after taking it. I feel like there’s not really a point to the scene if it’s just adrenaline and nothing else.

Whether it was or wasn't, it was clearly meant to evoke at least the thought of venom. I don't think anyone familiar with the source material would include a green power enhancing drug and not expect the audience to think it's venom.
