Soluble/Effervescent Tablets

By popping an effervescent into water, it quickly fizzes and disappears. The benefits to dissolving paracetamol in water is because it can be absorbed by the stomach quicker, therefore reacting to pain sooner than a normal tablet. Secondly, many find swallowing tablets too difficult an so by drinking the medicine, this problem is solved.
