What Are Side Effects Of Dioxin?

I have been prescribed dioxin for my CHF. I have been on it for a couple of years. For the last three four months I have felt very poor - pressure on my chest, hard to breathe at time and feeling very very poorly. Could my dioxin be a possible cause?

Hello,

I think all your symptoms are related to possible aggravation of CHF, and not related to digoxin use.

You should get further re-checked your cardiovascular system to rule out the possible aggravation of the disease. You might require some changes in your treatment plan. Discuss this further with your caring doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
