Brief Answer:
Can be taken that way. No issues!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

There is no difference swallowing or taking under the tongue. You are in no way wasting it. It might be absorbed faster under the tongue. Most medications are swallowed because the taste is not always the best but if you can take it that way, iy is okay.

I hope this clarifies any worries or doubts that you had. Let me know if you have any further worries.
