Decent product, not super convenient

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did like the product and I think these are great to have at home - helped me with my headache. But I just prefer the convenience of a pill form of pain reliever that I don't necessarily need an entire glass of water for.

Works Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like Alka seltzer. It works great for my occasional headache and body aches. It contains the NSAID aspirin and you can drink two effervescent tablets every 4 to 6 hours. The tablets are packaged together, just open and put in 4oz of water. I would recommend this product.

They work

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received Alka-Seltzer Original Effervescent Tablets complimentary for testing purposes and an honest review. I'm not the one who really buys Alka-Seltzer but I tried these when I had a headache and they work, it got rid of it pretty quickly. The only thing I don't like about Alka-Seltzer is the taste, I know it's not strong but I hate drinking any kind of medication like this it just makes me gag. But I would use them again if I need to get rid of a pesky headache in a hurry.

Eh

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product does help aid in upset stomach, headaches, body aches, and minor fevers, but my god does it taste awful lol. It might be slightly more bearable if you choose a flavor instead of the original like I received.

Great pain reliever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to use this product because I had a headache that I woke up with. There are 2 tablets to a pack. I'm happy that the tablets dissolve in water which means it'll hit your bloodstream quickly and tackle the issue. I thought 1 would be enough but the headache disappeared after the 2nd tablet. It doesn't have a taste other than sparkling water. Definitely recommend this as it was fast acting like in 10 minutes.

Received complimentary/exchange for review

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really did not want to have to review this. I did it anyways. The taste is just gag inducing and I really didn't notice a difference. If you're brave, do it! I'm just surprised they haven't found a way to make this tolerable. I didn't like, and I don't recommend it.

Alka Seltzer for pain relief

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received Alka Seltzer Buffered Aspirin in Original Flavor from Influenster to try and review. This is not an antacid that we normally associate Alka Seltzer with, this is a pain reliever for headaches, backaches, body aches and muscle pain. To me, the original flavor tastes very salty and I can't get past the taste. Reading the package, I see each tablet contains 568 mg of sodium and a serving is 2 tablets, so that explains that. Personally, I would much rather swallow 2 pills then drink this but if someone cannot swallow pills this may be a great alternative. Each tablet contains 325 mg of buffered aspirin and sodium bicarbonate so would probably help with a hangover too.

Different, but not bad

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved this product for free from Influenster and Alka-Seltzer in exchange for my honest review. This product is definitely different than taking a pill, as you let it dissolve in water, which took some getting used to. It does fully dissolve and has a pretty neutral taste that wasn't unpleasant. It definitely helps relieve minor aches/pain and seems handy to have in the medicine cabinet!

Simple taste but effective

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easily dissolved into 4 ounces of water, makes a bubbly easy drink that tastes just like maybe slightly salty water but nothing else. Helps with pain, headaches, menstrual cramps. I received this product complimentary in exchange for my honest review.

Works, but wish it was flavored

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I took this when I had a headache and muscle aches from a cold. It did wok to relieve the pain, but so could barely choke it down because the taste was awful. It literally tastes like a crushed up aspirin dissolved in water. I would not purchase unless Alia Seltzer added flavor to make it taste better.
