Are sugar cubes acceptable??

Hi, just wondering, a buddy of mine is due to bottle tomorrow some India Pale Ale and has lost his carbonation drops. I have about 30 drops spare, just enough for half his brew. Can he use standard sugar cubes from the supermarket as a replacement for the remaining drops? Any help will be greatly appriciated. Best regards…

They will dissolve slowly but I prefer to add a little boiled water or boil the sugar for a short time to sanitise them
