Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: When the heart muscle is unable to pump blood as effectively as it should, congestive heart failure develops. Over time, some disorders, such high blood pressure or coronary artery disease, cause your heart to become too weak or stiff to fill and pump blood effectively. Digitalis, squill, and stropanthus are examples of herbal medications that are frequently used to treat heart conditions. Caridio active glycosides include glucoscillaren A and scillarenase, which are found in squill and strophanthus, and purpurea glycosides A and B, which are found in digitalis. Cardiac glycoside are found in several plants and in toad skin [Bufotoxin]. Digitalis lanata is the source of Digoxine,the only glycoside is the currently use. Other like Digitoxine (from Digitalis purpurea) and Ouabin (from Strophanthus gratus),etc.are no longer clinically used or maeketed.
