I have sometimes had to have a sip of water to get the dissolving underway but keep that tab under your tongue - don't swallow it!
Or, as noted above, many people do opt for injections.
Dry mouth can be equated with hydration issues. Make sure you keep track of your fluid intake just to be sure that has not slipped on you. Hydration is critical.
I am creating my own revolution and PAMdemonium reigns!

Other options for B12 are a patch, a nasal spray (need an Rx for it) or shots (need Rx for those two). But a pill you swallow won't do the job.
