I used overload salve for first time today, at KBD. I noticed that antipoison effect was running out earlier than other effects - sometimes 15s, sometimes 30s earlier. Is its duration getting reduced when it saves me from getting poisoned? And if so, does the same happen with other antipoison potions? I couldn't find any mention of such behaviour on the wiki.

I assume it isn't a bug: it seems too regular and deliberate for that.

Yeah, that's how it works on monsters that have a high poison hit. Best to use Ogre thermal pool or flasks (not tradeable) if you have done the first resort quest and as long as you do not log out or lobby then the anti-poison effect should (but not always) last the full hour, it will also give you a hp boost so making bossing a little safer.

Making and using Lantadyme incense sticks will add up to 2 minutes per dose on the timer so worth it when using the more costly potions.

Living wyverns will drain anti poison very quickly even the thermal pool effect.
