| | Digoxin is not very effective at preventing recurrences of atrial fibrillation so it is used, therefore, as a drug largely to help slow down the pulse rate and make it more regular in people with fibrillation. | | | In patients with a congenital anomaly known as Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, the use of digoxin therapy may speed up conduction across the congenitally-abnormal pathway between the atria and the ventricles which can potentially be very dangerous. | | | Notify your doctor if you have a thyroid condition before taking digoxin. |
