Medical Overview
Digoxin is listed as Cardiovascular containing Digoxin. A medicine used according to its active ingredient, dosage form, and the patient’s condition.
Digoxin — two centuries of foxglove medicine distilled into two modern roles: AF rate control (adjunct/beta-blocker-intolerant) and refractory HF symptoms, at today’s low target levels (0.5-0.9). The narrowest therapeutic window in common use: renal function, potassium and interacting drugs (amiodarone, verapamil, clarithromycin — halve/monitor) decide toxicity; yellow-green vision + nausea + bradycardia = hold and present.
