[Bioavailability of digoxin tablets in cardiac insufficiency patients]. 1980

L E Kholodov, and E A Grigor'eva, and M G Glezer, and E A Sabel'nikova

The bioaccessibility of Soviet produced digoxin tablets in elderly patients with cardiac insufficiency was studied. It is shown that in absolute bioaccessibility (62%) and other biopharmaceutic indices digoxin tablets made in the Soviet Union are equivalent to lanoxin tablets of the Burroughs Wellcome firm which are accepted by the USA FDA as the bioaccessibility standard. Equations fitted within a two-part mathematical model satisfactorily describe the changes in blood serum digoxin concentration in oral medication and in intravenous administration.

D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.

D004077 Digoxin A cardiotonic glycoside obtained mainly from Digitalis lanata; it consists of three sugars and the aglycone DIGOXIGENIN. Digoxin has positive inotropic and negative chronotropic activity. It is used to control ventricular rate in ATRIAL FIBRILLATION and in the management of congestive heart failure with atrial fibrillation. Its use in congestive heart failure and sinus rhythm is less certain. The margin between toxic and therapeutic doses is small.

D006333 Heart Failure A heterogeneous condition in which the heart is unable to pump out sufficient blood to meet the metabolic need of the body. Heart failure can be caused by structural defects, functional abnormalities (VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION), or a sudden overload beyond its capacity. Chronic heart failure is more common than acute heart failure which results from sudden insult to cardiac function, such as MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION.
