"What kind of medicine is OD tablet?"

Posted by 大慶堂オンラインショップ on June 10, 2022

Q. What kind of medicine is the "OD tablet" that I sometimes see?
A.It is an abbreviation for Orally Disintegration, and in Japanese it is called orally disintegrating tablet.
This type of medicine dissolves like bubbles on the tongue within 5 to 20 seconds when placed in the mouth, like a Ramune candy, so it can be easily swallowed even without water.

[Advantages of OD tablets]
  • -Easy to drink even for those who have difficulty swallowing, such as the elderly.
  • - It can be taken without water, for example when fluid restrictions are in place.
  • -You can drink it even if you don't have water on hand, so you can drink it anywhere.
  • - It is sturdy enough to be carried around.

  • [Points to note]
  • It is not absorbed through the mouth, so it does not work any faster than regular medicine. You have to swallow it after taking it.
  • If you are taking regular tablets or capsules at the same time, you need to be careful not to get confused and make a mistake.

  • If you have any questions or concerns about your medication, please consult your pharmacist.
