Plan B: The short answer to your question is yes. As long as whatever was dissolved in your mouth enters the GI tract, the entire dose should get into your bloodstream. If any part of a dose seems to be dissolving in the mouth, it might be a good idea to drink a glass of water afterwards to assure everything gets into your stomach.

Yes: it can also be absorbed through the lining of the mouth and under the tongue.
