<p><b>Digitoxin</b> is a <a href="Cardiac_glycoside" title="Cardiac glycoside">cardiac glycoside</a> used for the treatment of <a href="Heart_failure" title="Heart failure">heart failure</a> and certain kinds of <a href="Arrhythmia" title="Arrhythmia">heart arrhythmia</a>. It is a <a href="Phytosteroid" title="Phytosteroid">phytosteroid</a> and is similar in <a href="Chemical_structure" title="Chemical structure">structure</a> and effects to <a href="Digoxin" title="Digoxin">digoxin</a>, though the effects are longer-lasting. Unlike digoxin, which is eliminated from the body via the kidneys, it is eliminated via the liver, and so can be used in patients with poor or erratic kidney function. While several controlled trials have shown digoxin to be effective in a proportion of patients treated for heart failure, the evidence base for digitoxin is not as strong, although it is presumed to be similarly effective.<sup id="cite_ref-Belz_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Belz-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
