Dispersible tablets
These are tablets that disintegrate within 3 minutes to form a suspension with a pleasant taste when placed in a small amount of water, e.g. in a tablespoonful or a glass of water. However, they can also be placed directly on the tongue and sucked.
Advantages of dispersible tablets - They are easy to swallow, so they are particularly suitable both for elderly persons with swallowing difficulties and for children.
- They have a quicker onset of action.
- Certain dispersible tablets can also be divided.
- The bitter taste of the active substance must be masked in advance.
- Owing to the number of possible applications, the patient compliance is improved.
