Cardin 0.25 MG Tablet 10 contains digoxin (0.25 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Sodium-potassium ATPase inhibition: Digoxin blocks an enzyme called sodium-potassium ATPase in heart muscle cells, which leads to an increase in sodium levels inside these cells.

• Calcium regulation: The increased sodium promotes calcium influx through a mechanism called sodium-calcium exchange, resulting in higher calcium levels within heart cells.

• Positive inotropic effect: Elevated calcium enhances the contractility of the heart muscle, allowing the heart to pump more forcefully and efficiently.

• Heart rate control: Digoxin slows electrical conduction through the atrioventricular (AV) node, which helps reduce heart rate and control irregular heart rhythms, particularly atrial fibrillation.

• Store Cardin 0.25 MG Tablet 10 in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

• Keep at room temperature.

• Protect from moisture and exposure to air.

• Keep out of reach of children.

• Do not use after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

• Maintain consistent potassium intake: Eat potassium-rich foods like bananas and potatoes regularly, as sudden changes in potassium levels can affect how digoxin (the active ingredient in Cardin 0.25 MG Tablet 10) works in your heart.

• Monitor your pulse: Learn how to check your pulse rate daily, as Cardin 0.25 MG Tablet 10 works by affecting your heart rate. Report to your doctor if you notice your pulse dropping below 60 beats per minute.
