I think this is one of those meds. that people love or hate....in how it affects/helps them. You may have to try it and see how it goes. I tried it and it made me quite ill but this is not everyone experience.

Reduced my heart rate without side effects. Off it now as surgeon took me off to go onto Amiodarone (yikes) before surgery.

It has quite a few contraindications with other meds etc., so I would recommend reading the paperwork very carefully before starting. Had to stop taking it which was a shame as it worked quite well although if my HR dropped, it often went too low.

I had persistent AF and have always been reasonably active. Took digoxin for 6 months (December 21 to June 22).

Found it was very unstable in stabilising my AF and heart rate especially during exercise (brisk walk on a treadmill) and has many food and drug interactions.

Digoxin is suitable for people with a sedentary lifestyle IMO.

Not what you're looking for?
