  • Title: [Serum concentration of glycosides and digitalis intoxication(author's transl)].
    Author: Haasis R, Larbig D.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1975 Sep 05; 100(36):1768-73. PubMed ID: 1157678.
    Abstract:
    Serum glycoside concentration was 2.3 ng/ml or more in 299 patients digitalised with digoxin or digoxin derivatives. Mean serum glycoside concentration was 3.4 +/- 1.3 ng/ml (range 2.3-11.00 ng per ml). Usually, high serum concentrations were associated with advanced den or digoxin-derivative overdosage occurred in only 10% of patients. Almost three quarters of those with intoxication had impaired renal function. There was some evidence that low body-weight increased the potential risk of intoxication.
