Strophantus D4 heart arrhythmia

[Swizzly]

I have already asked recently about heart arrhythmia since Pred. And it seems many people have that problem.

I have been taking Strophantus D4 tablets for a few weeks and have had no more heart attacks at night. Sometimes I still have little heart palpitations. I hope it lasts 🤞🏻

Who recommended you try it? Unless it was a qualified medical practitioner I really would counsel caution. Not least because it can have an interaction with corticosteroids, increasing the side effects of corticosteroids.

Dear PMRpro

Thanks for the link. I am surprised about the warning.

I can get Strophantus in homeopathic form in any pharmacy. I will see my rheumatologist on Monday and ask for his opinion.

Viele Grüsse ins Pustertal 😄

Ah - is this a homeopathic remedy? That is probably OK then, I was concerned it was higher doses.

[Swizzly in reply to PMRpro]

Yes, it is the homeopathic form.

But I will still ask about the interactions. Thanks for the prompt reply.

My husband and I used to go to Südtirol on our motorbike every year. This year my motorbike will stay in the garage. I read in a post that you live im Pustertal 😊

I do, at the bottom of Kronplatz ...

We once holidayed in Dobbiaco/Toblach. Spectacular.

"D4" is a dilution of 10^4, ie. one part in 10,000. That's quite a strong preparation by homeopathic standards. It should probably be treated as a herbal remedy.
