The nurse is caring for an adult who is taking digoxin (Lanoxin) 0.25 mg daily. Which comment by the client is of greatest concern to the nurse because the client is taking digoxin?
Correct answer
C
Rationale
A pulse of 60 may indicate bradycardia, a potential sign of digoxin toxicity, requiring immediate assessment. Anorexia and fatigue are less specific, and foot pain is unrelated to digoxin.
