Digoxin has been used for hundreds of years to aid rate control in atrial fibrillation and as a positive inotrope in heart failure. Our familiarity with digoxin has allowed it to become easily prescribed even though there are data suggesting that use of digoxin may in fact result in increased mortality and pro-arrhythmia. Within this review we explain some of the outcome data associated with digoxin use to determine if it is time to take the gloves off and examine if we should still be using this drug in the 21st century.
地高辛已被使用数百年，以帮助控制心房颤动的心率，并作为心力衰竭的正性肌力药。尽管有数据表明地高辛的使用实际上可能导致死亡率增加和致心律失常，但我们对地高辛的熟悉使其变得易于开处方。在本综述中，我们解释了一些与地高辛使用相关的结果数据，以确定是否是时候采取行动，检查我们是否仍应在 21 世纪使用这种药物。
