Resumo

Activated charcoal adsorbs oral digoxin and interrupts its enterohepatic recirculation, lowering serum levels. This is helpful in digoxin toxicity but can reduce efficacy if given at therapeutic doses.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Charcoal and Digoxin can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.

Charcoal belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract; Digoxin belongs to Cardiovascular.

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece

Charcoal binds digoxin in the gut, decreasing absorption and enterohepatic recycling.
