Patient's question:
Six months ago, I suddenly experienced accelerated heartbeat, palpitations, and shortness of breath, standing helplessly. I was diagnosed with ischemic cardiomyopathy. The doctor prescribed several medications for me. I noticed that besides digoxin tablets and potassium aspartate-magnesium, I wonder if ischemic cardiomyopathy can be treated with digoxin tablets and potassium aspartate-magnesium?Doctor's answer:
The patient currently primarily suffers from ischemic cardiomyopathy. If this condition recurs, the aforementioned medications can be taken under the guidance of a physician, which may help stabilize heart dysfunction and correct electrolyte imbalances. If the patient experiences palpitations or a rapid heartbeat, it cannot be ruled out that this is due to arrhythmia, which may be caused by heart disease. It is recommended to avoid fatigue from affecting exercise and to prevent mental stress and emotional excitement.
