MD tablets dissolve in the mouth. So they are absorbed through the mucosa lining of the mouth. The action is much faster than the tablets which are swallowed.
If you swallow the tablets then you will lose the benefits of quick action. Of course the medicine will show its effects buy it will be delayed.
