Oh, dude, when you chew those indigestion tablets, you're basically jumpstarting the process. By breaking them down in your mouth, you're increasing the surface area for your stomach acid to work its magic on them. It's like giving your stomach a head start so it can get back to its normal, non-burning self faster. So, yeah, chew away and say goodbye to that heartburn, my friend.

You get the solution faster than uncrushed tablet. At times a patient can not swallow the tablet and crush it before swallowing. But it is is not recommended to crush the tablets.
