CompositionLanoxin Tablet is used to treat heart failure and manage abnormal heart rhythms, such as atrial fibrillation. It works as a cardiac glycoside that increases the strength and efficiency of heart muscle contractions while slowing the electrical signals that cause irregular heartbeats. By helping the heart pump blood more effectively, the medication reduces physical fatigue, shortness of breath, and swelling in the extremities.
The treatment requires precise dosing and regular clinical monitoring to maintain safe levels in the bloodstream. It is essential to inform your doctor about any electrolyte imbalances (such as low potassium) or kidney problems, as these can affect how the body processes the medication. Do not stop taking this medicine abruptly, and ensure you report any symptoms of toxicity, such as blurred vision or nausea, immediately.
