to difficulty breathing dally during physical exertion Congestive heart failure is usually treated in three ways irst doctors try to incfease the strength of cardiac muscle contraction Lanoxin purified digitalis is prescribed for this pur pose The drug has a proven track re cord and has been used for years to stimulate more vigorous heart mus cle action as well as to slow the pulse It must be administered cautiously as its side effects notably nausea and heart electrical blockage can pre sent problems especially in older patients Second diuretic medicine such as Lasix forces the kidneys to ex more fluid than they normally would The regular use of Lasix will often release excess water from the tissues improve breathing eliminate edema swelling of the ankles and lower legs and reduce the work of the heart muscle Lasix and other diure tics like i do promote an ate loss of potassium a mineral need by the body for normal muscle functioning Hence doctors usually prescribe potassium supplements such as MicroK to replenish the losses Lasix is often given with the combination works well Third physicians may treat con heart by giving drugs that reduce arterial resistance there by reducing the work of the heart Such medicines include and angiotensin converting en or ACE inhibitors These cines are often used in conjunction with diuretics Their major side effect unacceptably low
