Digoxin is an antiarrhythmic that is used to treat heart failure in adults and children ages 5 years and older and atrial fibrillation (AFib) in adults.

Digoxin is a cardiac glycoside. It works by blocking a protein in your heart, which in turn causes your heart to pump more strongly with each beat. This helps people with heart failure get more blood and oxygen to the rest of their body. Digoxin also slows down the electrical activity in the heart, which helps people with atrial fibrillation have better control on their heart rate.

Digoxin is dosed based on many factors such as your body weight, kidney health, age, and other medications you’re taking.
Your physician will adjust your dose based on blood levels of Digoxin and if you’re having side effects.

Digoxin is a safe and effective treatment when used for FDA licensed indications. However, like all medications, they may give you unwanted side effects. You should always discuss potential side effects with your physician to ensure the medication is suitable and right for you. You should not use this medication if you have ventricular fibrillation or a known hypersensitivity to Digoxin or other forms of digitalis.
