wtf?
Digoxin is an old heart-medication. Used to be used for heart failure and controlling rate of atrial fibrillation. It is derived from foxglove.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digitalis
the term digitalis is also used for drug preparations that contain cardiac glycosides, particularly one called digoxin, extracted from various plants of this genus. Foxglove has medicinal uses but is also very toxic to humans and other animals, and consumption can even lead to death.
Can easily become toxic if levels not monitored.
