ABSTRACT
Of the commonly used drugs, digitalis has one of the highest therapeutic-toxic ratios. Mortality is significantly increased in the 20% to 30% of patients on digitalis who are in a toxic state when admitted to the hospital. Successful use of digitalis depends on avoidance of its use in situations likely to result in toxicity; recognition of the signs, symptoms, and electrocardiographic findings of digitalis intoxication; and stopping digitalis completely as the initial treatment of digitalis intoxication.
