Q

Dixogin

A

MOA-

  • inhibits Na/ K/ ATPase pump.
    • Intracellular Na+ & Ca+ increases.
      • Increase Ca+→ increased contractility (+ inotrope).
  • Increase vagal efferent efferent
    • redueces SA firing→ decreased HR,
    • slows conduction velocity in AV mode

Renal clearnace

DDI- quinidine, verapamil, amioarone

Hypokalemia can cause toxicity (watch for duretic use)

  • GI- nausea/ vomitting
  • confusion/ neurological changes
  • visual changes cardiac toxicity
