How do i take the sodium bicarbonate?...pill or powder? or does it matter?

I asked at the pharmacy and they said they do not have it so I don't know about pill. But baking soda is sodium bicabonate and you by it at the store 1/2 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon not too much it can be bad for you. I only do it every now and then when I am in a bad flare. I hold my nose because it tastes bad.

The baking soda and water always helps me -
neutralizes the ph - takes the acid out of
bladder.

I took just a 1/4 of a teaspoon in a juice glass....not too bad. I think it helps.

Does anyone know if the sodium bicarbonate tablets are safer (easier on your body) than the teaspoon of baking soda in water trick?

Also, I've said it in other posts but consider buying an organic brand like Red Mill, which you can find at Whole Foods or online. Red Mill is purer and safer to ingest than other brands.
