LANOXIN key facts
What is LANOXIN?
LANOXIN is the brand name for digoxin and is available as an oral tablet.
What dosages is LANOXIN available in?
LANOXIN is available as a 62.5 mcg, 125 mcg, and 250 mcg oral tablet.
What is LANOXIN used for?
LANOXIN 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.
How does LANOXIN work?
LANOXIN 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. LANOXIN also slows down the electrical activity in the heart, which helps people with atrial fibrillation have better control on their heart rate.
How do I take LANOXIN?
LANOXIN 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 LANOXIN and if you’re having side effects.
Is it safe for me to take LANOXIN?
LANOXIN 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.

If you have Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage and none of the LANOXIN savings options are applicable or affordable for me, what can you do?
If you are insured with Medicare and the LANOXIN drug savings options are not applicable to you and still remain unaffordable, then you can check Medicaid eligibility in your state by following the instructions at HealthCare.gov.
The government site is easy to use and after you have selected your state, it will navigate you to the appropriate contact point to make the application. State Medicaid programs may cover the full cost of your medication.
People who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid are called ‘dual eligibles’.
If you are denied Medicaid for LANOXIN, and you are still unable to afford your copay or co-insurance element (for example if you are in the coverage gap or Donut Hole) then you may be eligible for a federal support program like Low Income Subsidy. To be eligible for Low Income Subsidy, you need to be a resident in one of the 50 States or the District of Columbia. You can check eligibility online at SSA Medicare D Extra Help. You can also call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778).

I am commercially or privately insured and none of the LANOXIN prescription saving options are applicable or affordable for me, what can I do?
If your medication is not covered by your plan, you can you can appeal your insurance company’s decision. Sometimes, a formal appeal can result in the drug being covered if it is deemed medically necessary.
