Deslanoside is a cardiac glycoside formerly used in the treatment of heart failure and certain cardiac arrhythmias, similar to digitoxin and digoxin. It acts by inhibiting the Na+/K+ ATPase pump, leading to increased intracellular calcium and enhanced cardiac contractility. Currently, deslanoside is rarely used, having been largely replaced by other glycosides in clinical practice.
