Among all cardiac glycosides, digoxin is the most
commonly used, because:
A. It is the most potent and fastest acting
glycoside
B. It has the highest and most consistent oral
bioavailability
C. It is the longest acting and the safest glycoside
D. It has intermediate plasma half life so that
dose adjustments are possible every 2-3
days and toxicity abates rather rapidly after
discontinuatio
