FDA Again Warns Parents: Don’t Give Babies Homeopathic Teething Products

Going to be 8 months and I can finally put her hair up 😂💕

I use this brand for gas drops omg....

My son pediatrician she told does are not good and also the ones that contains benzocaine

Thanks so much for this. Dumping all the products out now And I was literally looking everywhere for the teething tablets. I thank god I never found them.

Is this the same for every homeopathic product? What about products that aren't hylands?

For those saying they will never use any products that are not YEA approved, please be advised. ..... NO baby formula is, has or ever will be approved. It's considered a vitamin supplement. No supplements are YEA approved from baby products, to multivitamins, to products at GNC to your local supermarket.

Oh my goodness! Thanks so much @lovelily, I didn't know that about benzocaine. I'm throwing my orajel away!

What about zarbees

Ok so we know what not to use... what should we be using instead?

Thanks I use to use this for my daughters and was thinking on using it for my son.

So what are we suppose to use then?!?!

That sucks I used the gel with my son and it worked magically I was thinking of using it this time around as well what to used this time idk.

@mskandice, am asking myself the same question

I knew these were bad and its a good thing I never really used them.

@lovelily, the FDA doesn't regulate ANY supplements/vitamins or homeopathic treatments... this includes children's vitamins and probiotics. The best thing consumers can do is make sure their children's vitamins and supplements are made in the USA. A lot of vitamins are manufactured in China and there have been issues with potency and contamination.
