There is a fairly complete conversion of spells from Magic to RPM found via the link in this post. The examples can be pretty helpful, but there are, obviously, other ways to magically skin the cat.

Keep in mind that - much like MtA's rotes can incorporate multiple spheres - RPM rituals can incorporate multiple paths or multiple applications of the same path.

"Neutralize Poison" in the sense of 'find the poison and remove it from the body/destroy it' could be done with Lesser Sense Matter (detect the poison) + any of Lesser Control Matter (draw it out of the body), Lesser Control Body (use the body's own mechanisms to force it out, like the cinematic 'sucking poison out of a wound), or Lesser Destroy Matter (to simply get rid of it).

But as others pointed out, with RPM there are always several ways to skin any given cat.
