"We must exercise our authority to protect the lives of the prisoners," said the Venezuelan vice president Elias Jaua.
"President Hugo Chavez's instructions were not to cause any victims, but this decision has been costly for the National Guard."
The government did not say how many prisoners died in Friday's violence, but the independent Ultimas Noticias newspaper said on its website that 11 inmates were killed and 26 wounded, citing contacts with detainees in El Rodeo.
On Friday, relatives of the prisoners pelted National Guard vehicles with rocks as they sped toward the jail. Some smeard their faces with toothpaste to ward off the effect of the gas.
The authorities also fired teargas to disperse relatives of the prisoners who demonstrated and lit barricades in the streets outside El Rodeo prison, screaming as the sound of gunfire came over the walls.
