What is an "orally disintegrating tablet"?

An orally disintegrating tablet is a type of medication that dissolves quickly in the mouth without the need for water. It is designed to dissolve quickly when it contacts saliva, allowing the medication to be swallowed easily. Orally disintegrating tablets are often used for medications such as antihistamines, pain relievers, and medications for conditions like nausea or seizures. They are convenient for individuals who have difficulty swallowing pills or prefer not to take medication with water.
