Is it alright to stir the Alkaseltzer in the water?

Question

Sometimes when I drop two tablets of Alka. in a glass of water, it doesn't dissolve entirely. So I will stir it. Does this affect the medicine in any bad way?

What should I do if the tablets don't fizz?

This is a sign that the tablets may have started to break down. It is very likely that the foil packet has a slight imperfection or pin hole which has allowed moisture to come in contact with the tablets. This may also cause the tablets to discolor and crumble. Please be aware that the product will not be as effective. Call 1-800-800-4793.

Sometimes there is a residue in the glass after I take Alka-Seltzer. Does it need to be consumed?

You do not have to drink the residue on the sides and the bottom of the glass. All the medicines are in the water.


What temperature of water should I use to dissolve Alka-Seltzer tablets?

The best temperature is room temperature. Cold water will slow down dissolution and warm water can make it foam excessively.

It is determined by the fruit or plant linked to a comparison. In the event that you compare a farreneheit to a carrot, the carrot is the better of the two nutritional. When you compare an avocado to the carrot, then your avocado is better. Both equally the apple and avocado, are fruits.
