About Digover Tablet 10's

Digover Tablet 10's belongs to a group of medicines called cardiac glycosides used to treat irregular heartbeats and manage the symptoms of heart failure. Heart failure is a chronic condition in which the heart is unable to pump blood as effectively as it should. Irregular heartbeat is a condition in which your heart beats irregularly, too fast or too slow.

Digover Tablet 10's contains digoxin, i.e. cardiac glycosides that help to increase the output force of the heart and reduces the rate of heart contractions. Digover Tablet 10's works on the heart muscle directly and increases the force with which heart muscle contracts with each heartbeat. Thereby, it makes heart efficient in pumping blood around the body and slows down the rate at which heartbeats.

Take Digover Tablet 10's as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend you how often you take Digover Tablet 10's based on your medical condition. Some people may experience common side effects like diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, abnormal heartbeat or skin rash. Most of these side effects of Digover Tablet 10's do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

If you are known to be allergic to Digover Tablet 10's or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Pregnant or breastfeeding women are advised to consult a doctor before taking the tablet. Regular blood tests are recommended by your doctor while taking Digover Tablet 10's to monitor the amount of Digover Tablet 10's in the bloodstream as its toxicity can lead to several forms of heart rhythm disturbances, vomiting, nausea and visual disturbances. If you have beriberi disease caused due to vitamin B1 deficiency, malabsorption syndrome (unable to absorb minerals from food) or any lung or kidney disease, please inform your doctor before taking Digover Tablet 10's so that the dose may be adjusted or an alternate medicine may be prescribed accordingly. Digover Tablet 10's has a very narrow therapeutic index. It means small differences in dose of drugs in the body may lead to life-threatening conditions or serious side effects. This makes its use limited and requires close monitoring by doctors like regular electrocardiogram (ECG). So, try not to self-medicate and suggest Digover Tablet 10's to others.
