Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Digoxin can cause tooth decay due to its sugary formulation, so it's recommended to give water after the dose to rinse the child's mouth and prevent tooth decay. The other options are incorrect: A) Digoxin should not be given if the heart rate is too low, but the specific threshold can vary; B) Digoxin does not necessarily need to be administered with food; C) If a child vomits after taking digoxin, re-dosing can lead to toxicity, so it's not advised without consulting a healthcare provider.
