A member asked:
I do not like letting a sub-lingual tablet dissolve under my tongue. can i take it orally?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Sub lingual tablets are formulated to dissolve in your mouth. Ingesting the medication may not allow it it function or be absorbed by your body properly. You can discuss your concerns with your prescribing physician, someone who has actually examined you and knows what medication you are taking.
