If your doctor does prescribe these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or special test to safely use both medications.

MANAGEMENT: It is advisable to be particularly cautious with patients in whom digoxin toxicity is suspected and with patients whose plasma digoxin levels are above normal or are suspected to be above the usual therapeutic range.
