The extract solution is washed successively with water, aqueous sodium carbonate solution and diluted hydrochloric acid and water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness. Purification of 12 mg.
  • EXAMPLE 23 A tablet is prepared in conventional manner from 0.2 mg. of 3p [4-0-(p-D digitoxosyl)-fl-D-digitoxosyl]oxy- (3-furyl)-5p, l4fi-androstane-14-16y3-diol, 50 mg. of starch and a small amount of magnesium stearate. Six tablets per day for saturation or two tablets per day for maintenance dosage are given to a patient.
