Probably not. When your effervescent tablets dissolve, they release CO2 into the bottle. This built-up pressure will try and escape by pushing liquid up through the dip tube and out the sprayer. If your sprayer is leaking, you’ll want to remove it and allow the built-up pressure to escape. Reattach the sprayer and see if that fixed the problem. You always want to make sure the tablets are completely dissolved before attaching your sprayer. If the problem persists, you may actually have a faulty sprayer.
