Suspension OK: If you are unable to swallow tablets they can be dispersed in water or other beverage and stirred with a spoon. It should completely disintegrate but not necessarily completely dissolve. It's OK to drink a suspension. If you left some behind in the glass rinse it down with a little more water and drink that too.
