Well, a tablet would be a lot smaller. If they worked at all… I guess either they’d be really low dose compared to a lozenge, and you’d have to suck on many many of them; or they’d be highly concentrated, and then sucking on many many of them seems like a bad idea and sucking on just one seems unlikely to work very well (it’s supposed to spend a while dissolving).
If you have specific tablets in mind, you could look at the formulation and see whether, if they were lozenges, they’d be acceptable. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the difference between a tablet and a lozenge is something that would rule out all tablets.
How do lozenges differ from tablets? If lozenges are out of stock, is sucking on tablets useful?
I don’t know and I don’t know.
