Does creating a slight vacuum in your mouth when dissolving a sublingual pill under your tongue help it "kick in" faster? (lemmy.world)

No, it's a marketing gimmick. Think about how fast oxygen gets to your cells, that's how fast anything get's around your blood. If a medication take's a while to kick in it's usually because another process needs to happen first, like Tylenol and your liver. The only tiny bit of truth to it is that thin membranes do absorb better, like your stomach, mouth, and butthole.
