Trusted by parents for over 60 years, Hyland's Teething Tablets are a great alternative to conventional teething remedies, such as ibuprofen, acetaminophen and numbing gel.
The small homeopathic tablets, which dissolve quickly under the tongue, are easy to administer and quickly provide relief. A bottle of Hylands, which contains 125 tablets, costs about $7.
Hyland's has received some negative press lately thanks to unsubstantiated Internet stories claiming that Belladonna, one of the ingredients in their teething tablets, caused serious illness in at least one child. The company issued a statement in response to the claim assuring the public that their product, which is an FDA-regulated drug, is safe.
Hyland's Teething Tablets have really helped my little one through most of his teething pain, although we've reluctantly used Infants' Tylenol on the rare occasion that homeopathics just weren't strong enough to soothe him. The Internet hype certainly hasn't shaken my confidence in the product.
