Agixin Tablet 0.25 mg contains Digoxin, a cardiac glycoside used to treat certain heart conditions, including heart failure and atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It helps the heart pump blood more efficiently while also controlling heart rate, improving symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, and reduced exercise tolerance.

Digoxin has been used for many years as an effective treatment for heart diseases. It works by increasing the force of heart muscle contractions and slowing the electrical signals that pass through the atrioventricular (AV) node. This dual action enables the heart to pump blood more effectively while maintaining a controlled heart rate, particularly in patients with atrial fibrillation.

Agixin Tablet is commonly prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that may include diuretics, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, or other cardiovascular medications. Regular monitoring by a healthcare professional is essential because Digoxin has a narrow therapeutic range, meaning the difference between an effective dose and a toxic dose is relatively small.

Composition

Each tablet contains:

• Digoxin 0.25 mg

Indications

Agixin Tablet is indicated for:

• Heart failure
• Atrial fibrillation
• Certain supraventricular arrhythmias
• Heart rate control in patients with irregular heartbeat
• Improving cardiac function in selected patients

How It Works

Digoxin inhibits the sodium-potassium ATPase pump in heart muscle cells, increasing intracellular calcium levels. This enhances the strength of heart muscle contractions (positive inotropic effect). It also slows electrical conduction through the AV node, helping regulate heart rate in patients with atrial fibrillation and other supraventricular arrhythmias.

Dosage & Administration

• Use strictly as prescribed by a registered physician.
• Take the tablet at the same time each day.
• Swallow with water, with or without food.
• Do not change the dose or discontinue treatment without medical advice.
• Regular monitoring of kidney function, electrolyte levels, and blood digoxin concentration may be required.

Possible Side Effects

Some patients may experience:

• Nausea or vomiting
• Loss of appetite
• Diarrhea
• Dizziness
• Headache
• Fatigue

Signs of digoxin toxicity may include:

• Irregular heartbeat
• Severe nausea or vomiting
• Confusion
• Blurred or yellow vision
• Extreme weakness

Seek immediate medical attention if symptoms of toxicity occur.

Precautions

• Use cautiously in patients with kidney disease.
• Monitor potassium, magnesium, and calcium levels during treatment.
• Inform your doctor if you have thyroid disorders or electrolyte imbalance.
• Elderly patients may require lower doses and closer monitoring.
• Use during pregnancy and breastfeeding only if clearly needed and prescribed.
