About Dixin Pead Solution
Dixin Pead Solution is 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.
Dixin Pead Solution contains digoxin, i.e. cardiac glycosides that help to increase the output force of the heart and reduce the rate of heart contractions. Dixin Pead Solution works on the heart muscle directly and increases the force with which the heart muscle contracts with each heartbeat. Thereby, it makes the heart efficient in pumping blood around the body and slows down the rate at which the heart beats.
Take Dixin Pead Solution as prescribed. Your doctor will recommend how often you take Dixin Pead Solution based on your medical condition. Some people may experience common side effects like diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, abnormal heartbeat or skin rash.

If you have beriberi disease caused by vitamin B1 deficiency, malabsorption syndrome (inability to absorb minerals from food) or any lung or kidney disease, please inform your doctor before taking Dixin Pead Solution so that the dose may be adjusted or an alternate medicine may be prescribed accordingly. Dixin Pead Solution has a very narrow therapeutic index. It means small differences in the dose of drugs in the body may lead to life-threatening conditions or serious side effects.
