About Digitoxin (Digitoksin)
Digitoxin is a cardiac glycoside. It is a phytosteroid and is similar in structure and effects to digoxin. Unlike digoxin, it is eliminated via the liver, so could be used in patients with poor or erratic kidney function. However, it is now rarely used in current Western medical practice.
