The effects of isolated and combined use of strophanthin and glucagon on the values of central hemodynamics and cardiac contractile function were compared. The study was conducted on patients with myocardial infarction complicated by congestive heart failure in the acute period of the disease. It was found that a combination of these drugs had a synergic inotropic effect. A conclusion was drawn on the advantages of the combined use of strophanthin and glucagon in the treatment of severe congestive heart failure in the acute period of myocardial infarction.
