Q

Digoxine

A

Block AV conduction
‏ slow ventricle rate in atrial fibrillation

use:
treatment of low output heart failure in patients who are symptomatic despite optimal use of diuretic ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers

MOA:
to slow V rate in AF :
‏ stimulate vagus nerve with consequent reduced AV conduction
therapy slow ventricle rate
