On third try, the disintegrating oral Klonopin tablets don't get any better. There's the issue with the blister pack. The damn peel back corner does not open the whole blister pack. It has this annoying tendency to rip off a tiny strip and only just to the edge of the depression where the tablet sits. Thus, you're forced to find some other damn way to get it open. I found out the hard way that disintegrating tablets are, apparently, more fragile than regular tablets when the tablet disintegrated in its depression while I was trying to get the thing open. It's all fun and games until you have to tilt the stupid blister pack upside down to try to get the crushed bits of tablet onto your tongue.
And then there's the thing about it supposedly disintegrating within a few seconds. Nuh unh. It won't disintegrate at all if I don't sort of rub it against the roof of my mouth. Then it turns mealy and sits there on your tongue. I'm not really sure if you let it sit there. It doesn't seem to disintegrate, unless whatever's needed to be released has been absorbed by your tongue and you're left to swallow the binding agent. Either way, it's oogey. And that's a scientific term.
