My pulse has slowed down to 65-70 instead of 105 and up. I am now getting headaches and stomach aches really bad. Diarrea too. I have noticed I am tired alot more too. Not sure if I can handle the side effects.

I have a painful rash over the entire left side of my body. I'm being treated for shingles, but the rash is spreading. This rash started about a week after changing from Multaq to Digoxin.

Side effects include diarrhea & vomiting from low potasseim. Its nickname is the "medicine from hell". I had a stoke & I feel much better without it. It should only be used for heart failure.

Digoxin has been a life saver. I've had one main side effect in my cognitive functioning, but that's probably something to do with blood or circulation changes (and the affect the med has had on the heart). This side effect has been life altering (especially completing my master's degree program), but the Digoxin keeps me in rhythm.

I am very happy this drug has worked so well for me that fast heart rate along with other symptoms sent me to the ER the first time after that I had 3 or 4 more episodes which lasted for several hours each time a very unpleasant experience I have been taking digoxin for 3 months now and have had no problems or side effects

In addition of getting swelling and redness of the face, headache, nausea and general very ill feeling I also experienced water retention which caused my blood pressure to be very high. The 2nd day after I stopped taking it all the symptoms improved and my BP is normal again.I will NEVER use this medicine again.
