PHARMACOKINETICS Presence of food in stomach delays absorption of digoxin. The volume of distribution of digoxin is large. It is concentrated in the hea, skeletal muscle, liver and kidney.

Its t 1/2 is prolonged in elderly patients and in those with renal insufficiency: dose has to be reduced. Ref:- kd tripathi; pg num:-515,516
