Guest guest Posted November 15, 2003 Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 I have a question and hope someone can answer it.I can wait until I see my endo in Dec but I will ask now-you know how it is-you want answers.I am on 1.25 mg Lanoxin for my heart.My PCP said that he wants me to take it daily even if my pulse is in the 50's-which it stays in the 50's-but when it gets in the low 50's I skip them.He said to take it until my heart rate gets to the 40's...well-I don't because that is just scary.Even his nurse told me that you just don't take it if your heart rate is under 60-that he is going to kill me-and EVERYBODY tells me this.Has anybody taken Lanoxin and what did your doctor say?My doctor says that in my case it won't hurt.Also-I was told not to take caffine because it will work against the lanoxin...as low as mine is what do you think?I still drink caffine free (I was also told not to even drink that because there is caffine in it still).
