Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Can smoking and alcohol increase acidity and GERD?
A: Yes, both cause an increase in acidity. Smoking also relaxes a valve present between the food pipe and stomach. This leads to stomach acid coming back upwards in the food pipe. This worsens reflux/ GERD disorders.
Q: How to take Windom Capsule?
A: Take Windom Capsule as advised by your doctor. You should take this medicine with a glass of water, preferably 30 mins before meal.
