digitoxin amphotericin B lipid complex
Applies to: digitoxin, amphotericin b lipid complex
MONITOR: Although amphotericin does not alter the pharmacokinetics of digoxin, it may increase the risk of toxicity. The mechanism is reduction of serum potassium via renal potassium wasting.
MANAGEMENT: The patient's potassium should be replenished, and serum potassium levels should be checked frequently during therapy. Electrocardiographic monitoring may also be indicated.
