Hi - the only tablet soluble fiber supplements I know of are Equalactin (my favorite), Fibercon, and Citrucel caplets (my least favorite - they just don't seem to work for me). There are generic versions of some of these - look for WalMart or KMart tablets made from calcium polycarbophil or methylcellulose. There are psyllium caplets available too (Metamucil) and inulin tablets (FiberChoice) but I'd avoid those as they're by far the most likely to cause big-time bloating and gas.

Benefiber comes in little individual pouches of single servings. Those might be good for travel.
