What it s like to eat effervescent tablets dry

It will burst the stomach, because the effervescent tablets will emit a large amount of carbon dioxide gas, and it is easy to cause gastric perforation if eaten directly.

An effervescent tablet is a type of tablet that contains an effervescent disintegrant. The so-called effervescent disintegrant is usually a mixture of organic acids and sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda); The effervescent tablet itself is dry and does not contain water, and the two substances in the effervescent disintegrant cannot react without ionization; However, when the effervescent tablet is put into the water, the acid-base reaction of the two substances produces a large amount of carbon dioxide, which causes the tablet to disintegrate and melt rapidly, and sometimes the bubbles produced by the disintegration will also make the tablet tumble up and down in the water, accelerating its disintegration and melting. The carbon dioxide produced when the tablet disintegrates is partially dissolved in the drinking water, giving the drinking water a soda-like aesthetic in the mouth.

Effervescent tablets are a novel tablet developed and applied abroad in recent years. It is different from ordinary tablets in that it also contains effervescent disintegrant, when the effervescent tablet is put into drinking water, under the action of effervescent disintegrant, a large number of bubbles (carbon dioxide) are immediately generated, which makes the tablet quickly disintegrate and melt, and sometimes the bubbles produced by disintegration will also make the tablet roll up and down in the water, accelerating its disintegration and melting. If you take it directly, a lot of bubbles (carbon dioxide) will come out of your stomach, so if you are not afraid of "gas", you can try taking it directly.

And when the effervescent tablets are not put into a glass of water to disintegrate, they are eaten directly in the mouth:

1. It is equivalent to treating your mouth as a disintegration container, and the drug disintegration process of effervescent tablets will be carried out directly in your mouth, and a large number of bubbles will be generated in the process of disintegration, which will definitely make you doubt your life.

2. If it enters the gastrointestinal tract through the esophagus, it will cause bloating, abdominal pain, hiccups, etc.

3. If it enters the respiratory tract, it will cause choking, causing people to be unable to breathe normally, and it is easy to cause suffocation.

1. Effervescent tablets are acidic, and it is best to brew them with ceramic cups and glasses when soaking, and it is not advisable to brew them with stainless steel cups and plastic cups to avoid affecting the taste.

2. Put the effervescent tablets into the cup, and when brewing the effervescent tablets, you should put the effervescent tablets first and then put the water; In this way, the effervescent tablets are soaked and flushed out of the bottom of the cup. It can soak hair more evenly.

3. Effervescent tablets should be brewed with cold water or 40 warm water, not more than 60 hot water, which will cause the loss of vitamin C and lose its nutritional value.

4. After adding water to the effervescent tablets, a large amount of gas will be released, let it be set aside to stand, and when the effervescent tablets are fully soaked and the air is dissipated, shake it to drink.

Effervescent tablets are a relatively new pharmaceutical dosage form in China, different from ordinary tablets, effervescent tablets use organic acid and basic carbonate (hydrocarbon) salt reaction as effervescent disintegrant, put into water, immediately effervescent reaction, generate and release a large amount of carbon dioxide gas, such as boiling, hence the name effervescent tablets. There are two main types of effervescent tablets: topical and oral.
