Brief Answer:
Use after green signal from your heart doctor. I dont approve these

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Atrial fibrillation and use of digoxin for that is contraindication for any erectile dysfuncrion use. Although these products are herbal but these still have the ability to interact with heart problem. specially shalajit and this longifolia.
I would strictly not recommend and if you need further clarification and safe alternatives talk to a sex therapist or get these products approved by your heart doctor first. Self medication prior to that may have lethal circumstances.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
