FDA Recommends Parents Not Treat Their Kids’ Teething Pain With Homeopathic Teething Tablets, Gels.

The ADA News (10/3) reports the FDA issued a recommendation to consumers to stop providing homeopathic teething tablets and gels to their infants and children due to the risk of “seizures, difficulty breathing, lethargy, excessive sleepiness, muscle weakness, skin flushing, constipation, difficulty urinating or agitation.” The FDA noted that such treatments “are distributed by CVS, Hyland’s and possibly others, and are sold in retail stores and online.”
