What it is used for: Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.

Indications as listed by the manufacturer: Cinitapride is indicated in the treatment of; - Gastroesophageal Reflux. - Functional Gastrointestinal Motility Disorders (slow gastricemptying).

How it works: Cinitapride is an orthopramide with gastrointestinal prokinetic activity, with considerable muscarinic properties. It blocks the presynaptic serotonin receptors and increases its release, resulting in greater serotonergic activity. Though it has discrete antidopaminergic activity, this adds to cinitapride’s therapeutic effect. Cinitapride efficacy could be due not only to an increase in the pressure of the inferior oesophageal sphincter but also due to its prokinetic effect.

Active ingredient: Cinitapride.

Reported side effects: Some patients may notice a slight sedation although cinitapride has not shown sedation while taking the recommended dose. On rare occasion, there may be extrapyramidal effects with spasm in the muscles of the face, neck and tongue which disappear when the treatment is stopped. The following may appear on very rare occasions: - Skin reactions: rash, pruritus. - Gynecomastia. - Very occasionally angioedema.

Known drug interactions: The prokinetic activity of cinitapride can alter the effects of drugs listed below : Cinitapride can potentiate the effects of phenothiazine and other antidopaminergic drugs on the CNS. - Cinitapride can reduce the effect of digoxin by reducing its absorption. - Anticholinergic drugs and opioid analgesics can reduce the effects of Cinitapride on the digestive tract .
