Avatar n tn My baby girl is 2 months and 2 weeks old her doctor told me se suffers from VSD muscular 4mm, ASD2 4mm,PHT and he gave her medicine lasix and lanoxin but she became lazy, less active and always sleepy without appetite.
Avatar n tn The second time I experienced SVT was in 2007, again my Dr gave me Lanoxin. Lanoxin was only prescribed when ever i have SVT. This 2009, I had several SVTs. In Sept 2009, my Dr. suggested to hv my regular ECG, CBC and my first time to undergo a 2D Echo with Doppler. My BP is 90/60. All ok, except for my low rbc ct in CBC. My Dr told me that low rbc cause lack of oxygen that is the reason i had SVT. She prescribed Ferrous Sulfates as source of my iron for blood oxygen.
Avatar n tn Is your uncle taking Lanoxin (heart medication)? Lanoxin has shown to increase the pumping strength. My father had a weak heart beat and after being on Lanoxin for about 10 years now, he's heart beat is strong (very strong per taking his pulse). Ask your uncle's doctor about Lanoxin.
329165 tn?1515471990 Went to Cardio for 6 weeks check-up and he prescribed LANOXIN 0,25mg with high starting dosage (had to take 4 tabs the 1st day). It is now 7 days later and still no improvement. My HR is still fast and BP low and I now have extra systoles/irregular HR. Should I stop using LANOXIN and switch to SOTACOR (I used it pre-op). I had Ablation done in Nov. 2007 to treat PSVT. Thank you!
Avatar n tn He currently takes lasix, aldactone and coumadin. Also, I researched Lanoxin and that sounds like it may be a drug suitable for him. Any advice you may have would be great thanks.
390388 tn?1279636213 call your dr and have them write a new script for digoxin or lanoxin... there is a possibility that your dr may want a new dig level before starting new script...
Avatar f tn My mother is on coreg .325 and docs just took her off of lanoxin hoping that is causing platelet drop, they aren't sure yet. today heart rate at 142 bpm at rest. All this started happening feb 21. before that heart rate around 100. The problem with more coreg or other beta blockers is the fact her bp too low 96 over 50 the majority of the time. I am soo scared for her, lanoxin prevents heart attack yet it could be the cause of very low platelets and she could bleed to death. catch 22.
Avatar n tn i know that my daughters cardiologist at the univ of mich had told us when they put her on lanoxin that the risks of amiodarone in her case made her not a good candidate for it. i do know that many have taken it for short periods and it seemed to help, but i believe it generally not taken long term as lanoxin or digoxin is hope my little bit helps and good luck....... dawn p.s.
Avatar f tn The medications really helps and are best. My dad was taking Lanoxin to strength his heart pump and I took his pulse the other day and was it strong. There was quite a change that I felt from before he started taking it. I am glad to hear that you are improving and feeling better. Take care.
Avatar n tn He was then discharged and is now recovering at home. He was taking Lanoxin and diuretics and did not have any swelling or breathlessness. So after 3 months the doctor stopped these medications (without checking the EF). He went for his checkup this month (9 months after surgery) and his echo shows an EF of 40%. The doctor also mentions "Mild LV Dysfunction". So now the doctor has put him back on Lanoxin and diuretics. Is this heart failure where the prognosis is poor?
162069 tn?1224677411 ___________________________________________________________ If you took Digitek, Cardoxin, Lanoxin or Lanoxicaps and suffered from overdose, it could be due to taking defective tablets containing twice the active ingredient as approved.
Avatar f tn My blood pressure is high 160/94 and doc prescribed an ACE inhib for me. How will this effect my PVC/PAC's? Help or hurt? Right now I take lanoxin .25 for PVCs. HBP runs in the family so I was doomed anyway.
Avatar n tn my doctor prescribed me some medications for my heart like coumadin, lanoxin, lasix, cardipress, zarnat, and aldazide... is this a life treathening? when will i stop to take these medicines? or does it take a years to stop these medcines? is it true that heart patient like me has a shorter life span compared to a normal person? help me plz, im already 27 yrs old....
Avatar n tn Wife, 89, has history of atril fib and is prescribed lisinopril (40mg), lasix (40mg) and lanoxin (20mg) along with coumadin (5mg) daily. Recent wide-ranging BP/Pulse readings (160's/80's and pulse below 50) led to adding Toprol XL. First tab last night at bedtime resulted in lowered BP (128/50 and pulse of 41) this AM. Accompanied by inability to urinate (except few drops) for a water drinker.
Avatar f tn In this condition medications are used to decrease the heart arte like lanoxin, beta-blockers, and calcium channel blockers. Afib is slowing down may mean that your doctor is telling you about the progression of the disease or its improvement. It is best to clarify your concerns with a cradiologist.Keep me posted on how you are doing. Best luck and regards!
Avatar f tn My cardiologist wants me to start on Lanoxin (.25mg). My blood pressure is pretty low so he thinks this would be the best med for me. He thinks maybe this will get me through the next few months and that maybe I can wean off of it after that. Ugh, I'm just frustrated that I need to start medicine since I had the ablation so I wouldn't have to take meds. Any insight would be appreciated! Thank you!
329165 tn?1515471990 s appointment Cardio noted this (I thought it is normal post-op to have such a fast HR) and prescribed LANOXIN. I have been using it for almost 2 weeks now and still no improvement in HR and BP. GP did bloodtests and these are the results: TSH: normal CRP: normal range Full blood count: normal range Pro-BNP: 218. Can anyone tell me what is this Pro-BNP test and if 218 is high?
Avatar f tn 8%, LALV clot absent and told the patient that he is having global hipokinesia. treatmwent given is - lasilactone 50mg, lanoxin, nitrocontin, ranojex. patient has respiratory allergy problems due to pollens in feb-march. i want to know prognosis of this patient and whether the treatment is correct or not and whether the patient should keep oxygen cylinder and what precaution he should take.
Avatar f tn I have had atrial tachycardia in the past (went away as I grew older) and then occasional ectopic beats which was treated with Lanoxin which was ceased when my blood pressure dropped too low. My only signs/symptoms are the fatigue, low pulse sometimes in the 40s, low blood pressure around 85 to 90 systolic as my norm and when I’m due for a transfusion I get short of breath and dizzy. Sometimes I wake up during the night gasping for breath and palpitations which I had attributed to anxiety.
329165 tn?1515471990 I had my 6 weeks check-up with Cardio today. I managed to do the Treatmill test for 4 1/2 minutes. Very impressed with myself for lasting so long. I am very unfit and will do some serious walking this week! My resting HR was anything between 120-130 and Cardio is not happy with that. I am hypotensive, so he can't give me a beta-blocker either (BP was 90/60) he prescribed LANOXIN that should help with HR without effecting BP.
Avatar n tn They use pacemaker to pace it out (mode switching) or regular my heart rate. Doc tried to prescribe a combination of Flecainide with Lanoxin, or Atenolol, or Verapamil. I can't tolerate them. And finally the Flecainide was not working after a few months. Now I didn't on any med. Yeh, all doctors still asked me to keep exercise, play spot etc. Are your SSS caused by med or actually the Sinus node dysfunction (Lazy heart)?
Avatar m tn She was seen by doctor suggested to wait until she is 3 months and stay under supervision and there is 90% for the hole to close until then. prescribed Lasix(centoxin),Lanoxin (frusin) And KT for her to start immediately. I know that Lasix has some side efects as to pottasium loss and water loss, is it dangerous for a newborn to be taking these medications . I am really worried for my baby.Is it safe to use the medication? Is it recomended to go for surgery?? and when?
