So taking the pill with plain cold water is fine as that's what the normal case when pills are tested. It's a basic principal in chemistry that heat, agitation, pressure speed up the rate at which substances mix. You can test it yourself and see: put one pill in cold water, one pill in hot water, and one pill in hot water that you stir and see which dissolves fastest.
