Abstract:
Since its isolation in the 1930s, digoxin has played a pivotal role in the treatment of cardiac conditions including heart failure and supraventricular tachyarrhythmias. The parasympathomimetic activity makes digoxin a reasonable option for controlling ventricular rate in atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the unique pharmacokinetic properties, electrolyte-dependent effects, and P-glycoprotein drug interactions influence the clinical use of digoxin. In addition, the delayed onset and narrow therapeutic index can make digoxin utilization cumbersome and often necessitates serum drug monitoring.

Abstract:
Abstract The most common methods for measuring digoxin concentrations in serum are immunoassays. The prerequisite for exact determination of the digoxin value is an antibody that specifically binds digoxin. Because digitoxin differs from digoxin only in the C-12 hydroxy group, it is difficult to obtain anti-digoxin antibodies that do not cross-react with this compound. During the development of a fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) for digoxin, we investigated digoxin tracers with different structures. We found that in FPIA the digitoxin cross-reactivity of an antibody could be reduce

SUMMARY In one experiment, 5 dogs were administered digoxin (0.022 mg/kg of body weight, iv), were rested for 2 weeks, were then given phenobarbital (13.2 mg/kg orally) for 14 days, and then were given digoxin again (0.022 mg/kg, iv). Comparing prephenobarbital (control) digoxin half-lives of 42.4 ± 8.8 hours and postphenobarbital digoxin half-lives of 18.0 ± 2.2 hours, the half-life was significantly (P < 0.05) decreased after phenobarbital administration.

The potential interaction between certain antibiotics and digoxin has been discussed in the literature; however, few cases of actual erythromycin-induced digoxin toxicity have been reported. We present a case in which an 86-year-old woman who was taking digoxin 0.25 mg/d developed probable digoxin toxicity after the administration of erythromycin for the treatment of otitis media and streptococcal pharyngitis. Her digoxin concentration increased from a trough of 1.9 to 5.1 nmol/L six days after the erythromycin was started. Digoxin was discontinued and restarted approximately six weeks later w

Abstract:
Digoxin-specific antibodies (Fab) are currently the treatment of choice for digoxin intoxication. These fragments bind to digoxin, leading to Fab-digoxin complexes, and promote the release of receptor-bound digoxin. These complexes are renally excreted. In the case of anuria, they could be dissociated and lead to renewed intoxication. In this case plasma exchanges are proposed. We report the case of an anuric patient with digoxin intoxication, treated with a Fab injection, followed by a plasma exchange 16 hours later, a second Fab injection was given followed by two plasma exchanges, 38 and 86

Two patients experienced clarithromycin‐induced digoxin toxicity. Both had stable renal function within normal limits and had been maintained on a consistent dosage of digoxin. No changes in drug therapy had been made except for the addition of clarithromycin. Administration of clarithromycin to patients receiving long‐term digoxin therapy may induce digoxin toxicity. When concomitant therapy is employed, patients should be closely monitored for clinical signs and symptoms of digoxin toxicity, and digoxin concentrations should be measured to avoid it.

However, modification of standard assay procedures for digoxin can also greatly alter the relative cross reactivity of DLIS.

Digoxin is a drug used for its effects on the heart, particularly its effect on rate and strength of contraction. Levels are particularly useful in clinical practice owing to its narrow therapeutic index, with toxicity and therapeutic levels being relatively close. Clinically, digoxin toxicity can be acute or chronic, and can manifest with signs and symptoms related to the gastrointestinal system, nervous system, and cardiovascular system. Given digoxin toxicity can lead to fatal dysrhythmias, accurate and reproducible analysis by the laboratory is essential in the treatment of patients with s
