A sugar coated tablet has a hard sugary coating - this makes the tablet nicer to put into a mouth and swallow. Some tablets have a nasty taste.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A tablet is a powdered medicine that has been compressed into a small, solid, disk or lozenge shape. This can then be swallowed easily by someone needing treatment using that medicine. However, some medicines taste bitter and to prevent this taste upsetting the patient as they swallow the medicine, the tablets are given an outer layer of hardened (and frequently coloured) sugar to make them palatable. This is a sugar coated tablet.
