This formula looks pretty standard for an effervescent tablet. I'd just be curious to know the intended use for this product.

I'm more interested in the fizzy factor than the actual ingredients. As long as it makes a good volcano, I'm in!

Wow, that's a lot of citric acid! I hope it doesn't taste too sour. Maybe they should consider reducing the citric acid content a bit.

The effervescent tablet seems to have a good balance of active ingredients. The APAP, CaCo3, and sodium bicarbonate should work well together to provide the desired effects.
