Cinmove Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called gastroprokinetic agents used to treat gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (reflux of gastric contents into the food pipe) and indigestion (slow gastric emptying). Cinmove Tablet increases the pressure of the inferior oesophageal sphincter, thereby preventing the back-flow of food and acid from the stomach into the mouth. This helps in treating gastro-oesophageal acid reflux. Cinmove Tablet increases gastrointestinal motility by enhancing the strength of contractions without disrupting their rhythm, thereby helping in treating indigestion.

How does Cinmove Tablet work?

Cinmove Tablet works by increasing the movement of the muscles of the oesophagus (food pipe), stomach, and intestines during digestion.

Can smoking and alcohol increase acidity and GERD?

Smoking and alcohol consumption can significantly exacerbate acid reflux and GERD symptoms. When you smoke, the muscle that separates the oesophagus and stomach relaxes, allowing stomach acid to flow back up and irritate the oesophagus. Alcohol consumption also relaxes this muscle and increases acid production in the stomach, leading to heartburn, regurgitation, and discomfort. By understanding the impact of smoking and alcohol on acid reflux, you can take steps to reduce your symptoms and prevent long-term damage. Quitting smoking and moderating alcohol intake can help alleviate discomfort and improve your overall health.
