[Actions of carbocromen of toxic effects of digitalis (author's transl)]. 1976

V J Scholtholt, and V Fiedler, and H Göbel, and R E Nitz, and E Pötzsch

Experiments an anaesthetized dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs show that with clinically relevant doses of 3-(2-diethyl-aminoethyl)-4-methyl-7-(carbethoxy-methoxy)-2-oxo-1,2-chromene-hydrochloride (carbocromen, Intensain¿) the LD100 of digoxin (+50%) and ouabain (+60%) considerably increase. The positive inotropic effect of digoxin is not influenced by carbocromen. The appearance of arrhythmias is significantly delayed, the coupling between atrial and ventricular activity continues for a longer time. Besides effects on myocardial metabolism a membrane effect of carbocromen could be responsible for the improvement of the therapeutic range of digoxin and ouabain.

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.
