Abstract

Cholestyramine, an ion-exchange resin, has been used in the treatment of digitoxin toxicity. A case report describing the use of a therapeutic regimen of this resin in a toxic patient is presented. Although cholestyramine aided in binding digitoxin in the intestine, its effect was not so pronounced as in past studies. Further investigation of this agent as adjunctive therapy in digitoxin toxicity is warranted.
