Q: Is this a lozenge or can it be swallowed whole?

The natural cherry flavor makes it a cinch to take and dissolving allows the B12 to be absorbed quickly into the bloodstream by dissolving under the tongue. If they really want to bypass the yummy flavor and enhanced absorption action, they could swallow it whole but be advised, it is not coated like a normal tablet would be for swallowing.
