making alka seltzer tablets

[the guy]

i want to make some alka seltzer tablets as part of an experiment.

 

it's easy to make the powder by mixing citric acid and sodium bicarbonate,

 

but how can i make that into tablets?

is there a way of doing it which doesn't involve buying a tablet press?

Well, you could always cut out an old pill that isn't gel-based and fill it.
