What is Digoxin?

Digoxin is used to treat heart diseases such as congestive heart failure, certain types of heart rhythm disorders, and sometimes, dilated cardiomyopathy. Digoxin is sold per tablet and requires a prescription from your veterinarian.

For:

Cats and Dogs

Benefits:

  • Increases contraction strength of the heart
  • Sold per tablet

How does digoxin work?

Digoxin works by affecting the minerals sodium and potassium inside your pet's heart cells. This action reduces strain on the heart and helps it maintain a normal, steady, and strong beat.

Cautions:

Because the difference between the treatment dose and the dose that causes side effects is small, do not adjust the medication without contacting your veterinarian. Contact your veterinarian if your pet shows decreased appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, incoordination, changes in urination, or weakness while being treated with digoxin.

Brand Name:

Cardoxin (Evsco), Lanoxin (GlaxoSmithKline)

Generic Name:

Digoxin

What is the most important thing I should know about digoxin?

Do not stop giving digoxin suddenly. Stopping suddenly could make the heart condition worse. Digoxin should be given with lots of water.

Other side effects may also occur. Talk to your veterinarian about any side effect that seems unusual or bothersome to your pet.

What happens if I miss giving a dose of digoxin?
