I am using Sucralfate as an esophageal protectant for my dog and these tablets won't dissolve without pulverizing them first. The generic I received from Chewy is marked NS:1 by Nostrum laboratories. The coating on these tablets must be for stomach ulcers only since they will do nothing until they reach the acids in the stomach. I have used other brands of Sucralfate for the last five years with no trouble dissolving them in a needle-less syringe. I know that Sucralfate is not widely available at this time but this is the wrong product for my needs.
This tablet does NOT dissolve well. I ended up using a pill crusher to break down the tablet so it would dissolve in the water. The price was right!
The tablets I received dissolved very well. Medication came in a very timely manner. Very pleased.
Easy to order. Best price out there. Fast delivery. Love the option for continuous ordering.
The medicine works well and the price for this is great
