A member asked:

Is it true that digoxin/digitoxin produces a characteristic ecg rythum?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Digoxin can produce characteristic ekg patterns that are well described. However if the level of the drug is too high in your blood (digoxin toxicity) various rhythm changes can occur that can be problematic. It is important to have levels checked periodicallyand follow up with the prescribing doctor.
