Hi there, digoxin levels may get affected by multiple factors,most important is if you are taking any concomitant medication that can change the plasma level of digoxin. please consult your doctor who shall review your medications and do appropriate changes and i believe you will be fine from there on..do let know if you have any more questions for me.
