Question 1 of 5
Which of the following events most likely caused the patient's symptoms?

C: Hydrochlorothiazide-induced hypocalcemia does not directly impact digoxin levels or cause digoxin toxicity symptoms. D: Captopril-induced decrease in digoxin clearance may increase digoxin levels, but not through oral bioavailability like erythromycin.
