Abstract

Serum and mixed saliva concentrations of digoxin were measured by radioimmunoassay in 34 hospitalized patients. The mean saliva : serum concentration ratio of digoxin was 1.14 (±0.48). Of 20 patients with saliva digoxin concentrations in the range of 0.7 to 1.5 ng/ml, 18 patients had serum concentrations which were within the same range. Saliva offers a convenient and noninvasive means of monitoring the digoxin status of patients.
