What is effervescent pill?

A effervescent tablet is a tablet that, when dissolved in water, releases carbon dioxide by the reaction of a weakly acidic organic acid in the presence of water. These pills are inspired by the salts found in mineral springs. In the 17th and 18th centuries, scientists began to discover the chemical properties and physiological benefits of salts such as glover salt and spoam. These salts were found in mineral springs that were once used as natural spas in the Roman Empire, and people considered bathing and drinking mineral-rich water to be good for their health. These developments led to attempts to artificially fabricate the salt mixture found in the mineral water using available materials. The combination of these types of salts, especially carbonates and tartrates with flavors such as lemon, formed boiling tablets containing citric acid, which were very popular and noticed by consumers. Effervescent tablets have been used in the pharmaceutical and food industries for more than 2 centuries.
