An 87-year-old male, prescribed digoxin and furosemide for congestive heart failure and Alzheimer disease, had dehydration and anemia due to poor food intake and hemorrhagic cystitis. Repeated vomiting due to an upper respiratory infection caused disturbance of consciousness and hypotension. The
A 79-year 65 kg male called the ambulance service 4 h after ingestion of 100 tablets of digoxin 0.1 mg complaining of nausea and vomiting. The ECG showed an idioventricular escape rhythm with a heart rate of 30/min. After 0.5 mg atropine, heart rate increased to 80/min. Soon after admission to the
1. A titration assay with two end points is described for comparison of the emetic and lethal potencies of digitalis-like drugs.2. A drug was infused at constant rate to a conscious, unrestrained cat, through an indwelling venous cannula. At the moment of vomiting the cat was rapidly anaesthetized
Digitalis glycosides are among the oldest drugs used in cardiology. Nowadays, due to the limited indications for their use (advanced heart failure, usually concomitant with atrial fibrillation), cases of poisoning induced by this class of drugs are rarely observed. Digoxin produces a positive
Digoxin rapidly crosses the placenta and reaches equilibrium, with maternal and fetal sera having equal concentrations. Virtually nothing is known about the effects of transplacentally administered digoxin on the fetus. Toxicity has been reported in the fetus of a woman ingesting a huge overdose of
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH)-sometimes called pseudotumor cerebri-is a neurologic condition distinguished by any of the following symptoms: headache, increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure, papilledema, vision loss, diplopia, tinnitus, deafness, nausea and vomiting, or sixth nerve
The attempted suicide by 2 women with a kyushin overdose is reported. Kyushin caused them to produce a significant elevation of a serum digoxin-like immunoreactive substance (2.35 and 1.84 ng/ml) and symptoms of nausea, vomiting and general malaise. Their blood biochemistry and electrolytes were
Nonanesthetized cats of both sexes were given oral digoxin (0.011 mg/kg of body weight) 3 forms: elixir, tablet, and crushed tablet mixed with food. Mean peak plasma concentrations of digoxin were highest with the elixir (1.89 +/- 1.02 ng/ml) and lowest with the crushed tablet mixed with food (0.66
Aprepitant is a highly selective neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist that, in combination with a corticosteroid and a 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5HT3) receptor antagonist, has been shown to be efficacious in the prevention of highly emetogenic chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. In vitro data suggest
The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effects of co-administration of flosequinan (BTS 49465, CAS 76568-02-0) and digoxin (CAS 20830-75-5) were investigated in 12 healthy volunteers. A 4-day, open, lead-in phase established the pharmacokinetics of flosequinan (100 mg on the first day and 50 mg for
OBJECTIVE
To examine the efficacy of digoxin for decreasing operative time, difficulty, and pain of late second-trimester surgical abortions.
METHODS
We performed a randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled trial of intra-amniotic digoxin for second-trimester dilation and evacuation (D&E)
An 88-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of palpitations, dyspnea, orthopnea and appetite loss. On admission, small crackles were heard on her lower back, and her liver was swollen. Chest rentogenogram showed cardiomegaly (cardio-thoracic ratio 65.5%) and bilateral pleural effusion.
The serum digoxin concentration increased in 25 of 27 study patients (93%), and the mean serum digoxin concentration rose from 1.4 ng/ml to 3.2 ng/ml during quinidine therapy. Anorexia, nausea, or vomiting developed in 16 patients (59%) but disappeared in all ten patients for whom the digoxin dose
