1. **State the problem:** Calculate the digoxin clearance for Mrs A, who has congestive heart failure.
2. **Given data:**
- Weight = 70 kg
- Creatinine clearance (Clcr) = 25 mL/min
- Condition: congestive heart failure
3. **Formula for digoxin clearance in congestive heart failure:**
$$\text{Digoxin clearance} = (0.33 \times \text{weight}) + (0.9 \times \text{Clcr})$$
4. **Substitute the values:**
$$= (0.33 \times 70) + (0.9 \times 25)$$
5. **Calculate each term:**
$$0.33 \times 70 = 23.1$$
$$0.9 \times 25 = 22.5$$
6. **Sum the terms:**
$$23.1 + 22.5 = 45.6$$
7. **Final answer:**
The estimated digoxin clearance for Mrs A is **45.6 mL/min**.
